Real Madrid has taken an important step in their planning for next season with the signing of Trent Alexander-Arnold. The team needed to strengthen the right-back position and has secured one of the greatest talents in world soccer. The English footballer, known for his offensive ability and great vision on the field, joins Madrid to reinforce a defense that already features Dani Carvajal.
The return of Carvajal
Dani Carvajal, one of Madrid's pillars in that position, will be fully recovered for next season. After some physical setbacks in recent times, Carvajal will return to the first team in his best form.
The competition at right-back will be tough, but Carvajal remains a key piece for Carlo Ancelotti's team. The white club has decided to secure their long-term future by making a strategic move with the signing of Alexander-Arnold.
The future right-back: Jesús Fortea
But Real Madrid aren't just strengthening with international stars. In addition to the signing of Alexander-Arnold, the club has renewed one of their young talents, Jesús Fortea, who has signed until 2029.
Despite interest from several renowned clubs, Fortea has decided to stay at Madrid, trusting the club's long-term project. Xabi Alonso, first team coach, has big plans for him and hopes he'll be a key piece in the Club World Cup.
Carvajal's heir
This young man, seen as Carvajal's heir, has impressed Madrid's coaches with his maturity and talent. Fortea's renewal is a clear sign of the trust the club has in him to fill the right-back position in the coming years.
Next season will be crucial for him, as he'll have the opportunity to train alongside Carvajal and Alexander-Arnold, learning from the best.
The future of the right-back position at Madrid
With the arrival of Alexander-Arnold and the renewal of Jesús Fortea, Real Madrid strengthens a key position in their tactical setup. The competition at right-back will be fierce, but Fortea, with his talent and potential, is one step closer to making his debut in Madrid's first team. This move strengthens Madrid both in the short and long term, ensuring a solid right-back for the coming years.
