Real Madrid has made a key decision for the upcoming winter transfer window: they will seek to reinforce their defense with a new center-back. Although initially it was thought that the club would rely on the return of David Alaba after his recovery, the situation of the Austrian player has seriously complicated the team's plans and those of Carlo Ancelotti.

According to Onda Cero, Alaba is suffering from a cartilage problem in his knee that is causing significant wear and tear, resulting in a lot of pain and difficulty in returning to his best level. This condition has prompted the White Club to start considering alternatives to cover his absence, as they do not see it likely that the defender can return to his best form in the short term.

Injuries are complicating Real Madrid's season, they will need to make signings

While the club is trying to maintain some discretion to avoid inflated prices in the market, Ancelotti would welcome the arrival of a reinforcement in defense for January. The idea is to find a central defender that allows more rotation for Antonio Rüdiger, who, due to his age, needs his minutes managed, as well as for Eder Militao, who will return from a lengthy injury. The lack of rotation in that position has been a concern for the Italian coach, especially considering the tight schedule the team will face in the second half of the season.

The option being considered is a loan until the end of the season, allowing the club to maintain its long-term planning. With this strategy, Real Madrid would retain flexibility to carry out the moves they already have in mind to strengthen their squad in the future in 2025.
