Real Madrid is one of the most prestigious and competitive teams in the world, therefore, they cannot afford to have an incomplete squad, as is the case right now. Eder Militao's injury ruined the season, since he is one of the best defenders in Europe, and he will not be able to play for the entire season. Now, Real Madrid is exploring three signings to make up for the loss.

Leny Yoro: At 17 years old, this talented Lille center back has stood out in Ligue 1, attracting the attention of several European clubs. Real Madrid has included Yoro in its list of candidates for the 2024/25 season. With exceptional skills to get the ball played and formidable speed to dismantle rival offenses, Yoro presents himself as a valuable option.

Giorgio Scalvini: Coming from Atalanta, Scalvini has proven to be a rising football promise. His performance in the 22/23 season has placed him as an alternative to be considered by Florentino Pérez to reinforce Real Madrid's defense in 2024. The cost of signing him could be around 30 million euros.

Malick Thiaw: This 22-year-old German defender joined AC Milan in 2022 from Schalke 04. Although he is still looking to establish himself in the team's starting eleven, there are high expectations about his potential, especially due to his imposing height of 1.94 meters. Thiaw represents an attractive option to reinforce Real Madrid's defensive backline.

Nacho's departure forces us to look for centre-backs

Militão's injury and the imminent departure of Nacho Fernández at the end of the season make these options crucial for Real Madrid's future in defence. Florentino Pérez continues to evaluate and analyze these alternatives to make the right decisions and consolidate a competitive team for next season. For this reason, these three previously mentioned defenders are leading the way to arrive at Casablanca and thus strengthen the defense of the Merengue team.
