Real Madrid are in desperate need of a centre-back, with injuries to Eder Militao, David Alaba, Aurelien Tchouameni and Jacobo Ramon meaning Carlo Ancelotti has just three options at his disposal: Antonio Rudiger, Raul Asencio and the discarded Jesus Vallejo. There is a need for a new addition as soon as possible, but it is certain that January will be the first opportunity for someone to join.
The free agent market has been considered, but only Sergio Ramos has emerged as a realistic option. However, he will not rejoin the club where he spent 16 years, with Marca reporting that Real Madrid president Florentino Perez will not reconsider his position on the matter.
Ramos has offered himself to Real Madrid, with club icon Guti Hernandez also calling for a sensational return for the 38-year-old. It has also been reported that Ancelotti would welcome the reunion, but ultimately Perez has the final say – and his answer is a definitive no.
