"Monaco", returning to the French "Ligue 1", continues to strengthen their squad. This time, the club was joined by Real Madrid defender Ricardo Carvalho. The Portuguese, who played a role as a backup player at the royal club, signed a one-year contract with the legendary French club. "I am happy to be able to play in such a team. I want to prove that I can still play very well," said the center-back. R.Carvalho arrived in Madrid from Chelsea in London in 2010. During this period, the player played 76 matches and scored three goals. Carvalho is not the first purchase for Monaco. Earlier, they acquired a duo from Porto and should also add Atletico Madrid star Radamel Falcao to the team in the near future."
