This week, Real Madrid supporters were left feeling depressed after learning the bad news that Nacho Fernandez had already left the club. On the other hand, it is necessary to acknowledge that this decision has been far overdue. The legendary player for Real Madrid is far beyond his prime, and as a result, it is time for a new strategy to be implemented in the defense now.
With that being stated, is there any possibility that Nacho might be replaced by another player? In light of the fact that Carlo Ancelotti believes there is a pressing need to strengthen his defensive alternatives for the forthcoming 2024/25 season, the response is an unequivocal approval…
The 18-year-old player is at the top of the Real Madrid transfer list, according to Fabrizio Romano.
An update from the transfer specialist Fabrizio Romano indicates that Carlo Ancelotti has one person in mind to replace Nacho Fernandez in the Real Madrid squad. Nacho Fernandez is currently out with an injury. In a brief but sweet post on X (which was then known as Twitter), Romano said that Leny Yoro is at the top of Real Madrid’s transfer list in terms of replacing Nacho Fernandez.
Al Ittihad is now engaged in advanced negotiations with Real Madrid in order to acquire Nacho as a free agent.
According to the story that was published by L’Équipé tonight, negotiations are still open.

In light of the fact that Leny Yoro is now regarded as one of the top defenders in Europe, it should come as no surprise that he is a highly sought-after commodity on the transfer market. In spite of the fact that he is just 18 years old, he is already demonstrating that he has the ability to achieve world-class excellence in the future of his career.
In the previous season, the center back started 30 matches for LOSC Lille in the Ligue 1 competition. Also, he started three matches in the Conference League, which means that he already has a significant amount of experience playing in Europe at this point in his career.
In light of the fact that Nacho has not renewed his contract, Real Madrid now have three center backs who are capable of performing under pressure going into the 2024/25 season. David Alaba, who is presently injured, is also 31 years old, and Eder Miltao, who is 26 years old, is the youngest player at the moment. Antonio Rudgier is the oldest player at the moment.
In light of the fact that every single one of Real Madrid’s defenders is now in the prime of their careers, it is a breath of fresh air to see Carlo Ancelotti considering making an investment on a player who is considered to be a project because of his potential. Yoro will be considered a player for the future, despite the fact that he has every aspect of the capacity to start matches for Real Madrid.
Taking everything into consideration, Carlo Ancelotti is not in a hurry to improve his lineup right now. Although the team that he has at his disposal is very close to being ideal, Real Madrid should practice strengthening for the future since this is a strategy that will pay off in the long run. Once everything is said and done, Florentino Perez is responsible for instilling in his students the habit of thinking strategically and prudently.
