FIFA Club World Cup
Real Madrid is considering the possibility of incorporating Rafa Marín, who was trained in their academy and currently plays for Napoli. The central defender, who shone during his loan spell at Alavés, left the Madrid club last summer in a deal worth €12 million, potentially rising to €22 million based on objectives. However, his adventure in Serie A has not met expectations as Napoli's coach, Antonio Conte, has not given him much prominence.
The need to strengthen a defense plagued by constant injuries has led the white club to contemplate Marín's return. His knowledge of the club and LaLiga, coupled with his youth and potential, make him an attractive option to cover defensive weaknesses. The idea would be to bring him back on loan until the end of the season, following the discreet approach typically adopted by Real Madrid in the winter transfer market.
Another suitor in the league, Villarreal emerges
However, in recent days, we have reported that Marín's return to the Bernabéu will not be straightforward. Villarreal, always attentive to market opportunities, has also shown interest in acquiring his services. The "Yellow Submarine" sees him as an ideal reinforcement for their defense and could complicate negotiations with Real Madrid.
Although the player would be delighted to wear the white jersey again, he does not rule out other options. The lack of playing time in Italy has led him to consider any opportunity that would help revive his career.
In this scenario, Real Madrid will need to act swiftly and precisely if they want to prevent Marín from strengthening a direct rival in LaLiga. His return would not only be a strategic move but also a vote of confidence in the talent developed in their academy.
