Jose Mourinho is planning changes in the defense of Madrid's Real. Currently, the main central defender Sergio Ramos is likely to return to the right side.
It is difficult for the chief strategist of the royal club to decide. The young Rafael Varane, who is in excellent form, is increasingly taking the place of the long-standing Pepe.
However, J.Mourinho has found a way out - S.Ramos is likely to return to his usual right side, and the center-back tandem will be formed by Pepe and R.Varane.
The vice-captain's understudy at Real should be the much criticized Alvaro Arbeloa. On the left side, there are also questions for the Portuguese, as Marcelo and Fabio Coentrao are among the candidates for a starting position.
It is reported that these tactical changes will be tested by the 50-year-old coach in the UEFA Champions League match against Borussia Dortmund.
