Real Madrid does not need new defenders

After the transfer of Leny Yoro fell through and the player chose Manchester United over Real Madrid, the "Merengues" will not urgently sign central defenders, reports Marca.

Following a club management meeting this week, it was decided not to acquire new players at least until the end of August to clarify the situation with David Alaba's injury. If it becomes clear that the defender can return to play by October-November, the club will not seek a replacement for him in the summer transfer window.

Furthermore, Carlo Ancelotti will have the opportunity to evaluate other options to strengthen the team during the preseason tournament. Young defenders from Castilla, Joan Martinez and Jacobo Ramon, have been included in the squad. Aurelien Tchouameni may also return to the central defender position.
