The football of the Real Madrid will need a new central in the short term if it does not want to finish improvising in the most important part of the season and in front of this has several possible options

Calendar of FC Barcelona

The Real Madrid won to the Villarreal in Santiago Bernabéu (4-1) of conclusive way, but also finished the meeting with the third injury of ligaments of knee in what it goes of season. In this opportunity the unlucky situation has been for David Praises that it came suffering in the last weeks with problems of regularity, and the one who now will be drop by what remains of course.

With Eder Militao not returning before finals of March surely, the white team, and especially Carlo Ancelotti, has clear that will need to take advantage of the market of winter to solve a situation that right now has him only with two natural head offices in the staff: Nacho and Rüdiger. Already it was in shape of cession or of signing on a long-term basis, the whites will move index card yes or yes in the following two weeks and the posture that adopt Florentino Pérez with regard to the strategy will do that the names go on the one hand, or by another.

It is necessary to stand out, of course, that the president merengue also could decide that it is not necessary fichar and that the current staff is sufficient to be three months more to Militao, taking into account that Tchouameni or Ferland Mendy could act like head offices of emergency. Besides, Carletto could finally trust some canterano, having also in account that the journalist Edu Aguirre affirmed that Rafa Marín, yielded in the Alavés, could go back to the Madrid in January.

Florentino: Save or bet by an already checked defender

Leaving clear this first stage, very possible by the decisions that has taken Florentino in the last two years, leave also options a bit more in the short term and of less bet like Raphael Varane or Aymeric Laporte. The French is in a 'war' opened with Erik have Hag and could force his return to the Bernabéu if the Madrid raises the telephone, standing out besides that his price would not be too elevated for a player that still is in his 30 years.

In the case of the Basque defender the situation is similar. With 29 years decided to leave Arabia to the not explaining more for Pep Guardiola in the Manchester City, but left clear that dreamed with a call of a 'big' of LaLiga, especially of the FC Barcelona, but clearly could accept also one of the Madrid. So much Laporte like Varane can offer immediate performances, but also without delivering so much to the project to future, something that yes that show the others three names that have been related almost immediately with the team madridista.

Three very interesting bets for the future of the Madrid

In first instance, 'Sport' aimed that Florentino could take advantage of the grave injury of Praises to reinforce the centre of the defence on a long-term basis, something that in summer was not descartado, especially if Nacho finishes not renewing by another season. The information delivers to the Portuguese Gonçalo Inácio and to the Italian Giorgio Scalvini like the two favourite options of the white club, both already consolidated defence in the elite, but that still will be able to keep growing during the next 6 or 8 years.

Inácio Is surely the most obvious bet. 22 years and a big present in the Sporting of Portugal, although with a clause of exit of 60 millions and a team luso that the past summer already denied to negotiate with other entities, included the merengue. Scalvini, by his part, is a bet of the own Ancelotti in front of his knowledge of the Italian football. To his 20 already great years more than 50 official parties with the Atalanta and already adds other seven like international absolute.

With agreement until 2028, the one of Chiari represents a no lower investment of 50 million euros, in addition to a possible time of adaptation to the club understanding that it keeps on being a youngster that does a week still had 19 years. As last possibility shows Leny Yoro. The central of 18 years was news this Sunday to the 'dry' to Kylian Mbappé in the Lille-PSG of Tie it 1 and from France ensure that has a brilliant future and have put his name in the diary of a Madrid that would try to repeat the success that had with Varane does a decade.
