"Real" Madrid wants to strengthen their defense and there are several very famous names on the list of candidates. According to "Marca", Florentino Perez wants Sergio Ramos and Raphael Varane to have more competition, as Pepe's departure has reduced it. At the moment, Nacho feels quite strong in defense, but he is forced to plug holes not only in the center-back position, but also on the flanks. "Real" Madrid wants a true center-back, who should already have a world-class player status. As the mentioned publication writes, the "white" eyes are turning towards the camps of the two closest teams - Madrid's "Atletico" pair Lucas Hernandez and Jose Gimenez, and Barcelona's defensive pillar Samuel Umtiti. Considering the situation, Jose Gimenez's candidacy seems somewhat realistic. It is also noted that the "whites" are watching PSG defender Marquinhos, who satisfies the club both in terms of his age and level of skill. It is emphasized that after the season, the promising Jesus Vallejo, who has played only 12 matches since last season, will be bid farewell. They want to loan him out or sell the remaining half of the player's rights."
