Real Madrid is having a difficult season in defense. Injuries to key players such as Dani Carvajal and Éder Militão have affected team performance.
This has forced the club to rethink the transfer market, looking for reinforcements in the back line. Right back has been an affected position, so Madrid will reinforce its defense in winter.
The Jewel of Spanish Soccer
Real Madrid's main target seems to be clear: José Ángel Carmona. This young defender, only 22 years old, has become one of the great talents of Spanish soccer. At Sevilla FC, he's consolidated himself as a key player.
Carmona has stood out for his versatility, as he can play both as a center-back and as a right-back. His ability to adapt to different roles in defense makes him a very interesting profile for Madrid.
Despite his young age, Carmona has accumulated 2,480 minutes of play this season, showing a level of maturity and quality that has allowed him to shine in LaLiga. With his performance and projection, many see him as the natural successor to Sergio Ramos. The latter left a void that was difficult to fill in the team after his departure to PSG.
Carvajal Approves Carmona's Arrival
Despite his physical problems, Carvajal remains a leader in the locker room and key to Madrid's defense. Carvajal approves the arrival of José Ángel Carmona, seeing in him the potential to adapt quickly to Madrid's system.
The addition of Carmona wouldn't only help to cover possible injuries but also to ensure the future of the team in that position.
Farewell to Alphonso Davies
With the possible arrival of Carmona, Real Madrid could put an end to their its in Alphonso Davies, one of Bayern Munich's most outstanding players.
Although the Canadian full-back was considered for a move, Madrid considers Carmona to be a more affordable option that suits its needs. Carmona's 30-million-euro buyout clause makes him a viable option and his experience allows him to make the move to Madrid.
Real Madrid is taking steps to strengthen defense in the winter transfer market. With his versatility and quality, José Ángel Carmona is shaping up to become the big transfer of the club. The approval of Carvajal and the possible departure of Alphonso Davies point to a promising future for the young Sevilla player in the Spanish capital.
