Madrid's Announcement about Militão and His Future at Santiago Bernabéu: 'We Won't...'

One of the most striking dilemmas Real Madrid has right now is in the central position position due to injuries over the last two seasons. Names like Éder Militão and David Alaba haven't been very prominent in recent months. Because to two anterior cruciate ligament tears, which has prompted alternative solutions. Raúl Asencio, promoted directly from Real Madrid Castilla, is the most notable.

However, the '35' from the Canary Islands might not be the only one to join the roster of defenders by the 2025 summer. Transfer market rumors place the executives led by Florentino Pérez in the transfer of several elite European central defenders, something that wouldn't be a reality.

The information published by MARCA reveals what the plan is in the Valdebebas offices for the upcoming seasons: not to intervene in the transfer market under any circumstances. With all players fully recovered, the board led by Florentino believes that Ancelotti has more than enough players to succeed in the coming seasons.

Therefore, the sports daily points out, they will refrain from making any moves in that market sector by the 2025 summer. Besides the recovery of David Alaba, which is progressing well, hopes are also pinned on Éder Militão. The '3' continues to advance in his return after another anterior cruciate ligament injury, caused by excessive effort as a central defender.

Striking decision

With hardly any rotations, the Carioca center-back has been forced to visit Valdebebas's infirmary again. But now that there are up to four center-backs, three players in their natural position plus Aurélien Tchouaméni, it's a completely different context. It only remains to wait until the end of the current season and reintroduce the defender from Sertãozinho into the merengue sports discipline.

The plan of the Madrid executives, as has happened on previous occasions, doesn't seem to find much success with Carlo Ancelotti. Already last summer, the Reggiolo coach asked the sports management about the possibility of signing a center-back due to Fernández's departure as a free agent. The reply, arrived after the fiasco in the 'Yoro case', turned out to be a negative with which the transalpine strategist must live daily.

Almost all urgent signing proposals made since last summer, according to information published by several reputable media and journalists, have fallen into oblivion irretrievably. Especially because they would stray from the long-term roadmap planned by the occupants of Santiago Bernabéu's noble area, whose objectives remain a true mystery.

Doubts about possible signings for the most compromised areas of the team continue in a very challenging moment for Real Madrid. While it's true that Ancelotti currently has four center-backs, including Tchouaméni, they still aren't enough to guarantee total victory in the eyes of the Italian.
