Real Madrid enter the market for a new defender – report
Real Madrid have some clearly defined priorities for the upcoming summer transfer window, and going purely by the team’s performances and dynamics this season, the midfield appears to be on top of that list.
The central defence, in addition, has long been seen as a weak area in the team, and the decision over a new signing in the department was expected to be made based on the futures of the current mainstays.
As reported by COPE (h/t The Madrid Zone) now, there is finally clarity around the future of players in the department and Real Madrid have come to the conclusion that new recruitment is essential.
Plan for the summer
As relayed by the outlet, David Alaba is set to leave Real Madrid in the summer beyond any doubt and Raul Asencio is no longer in the club’s plans in a sudden turnaround.
Further, Eder Militao is set to be out for five months at least, and given that it is his third surgery in a relatively short period, it is unclear how his situation will progress.
