Carvajal tells Florentino Perez who should replace him at Madrid: He’s the best

News continues to unfold at Real Madrid, with recent attention focused on Dani Carvajal. The right-back has had multiple discussions with Florentino Pérez following his serious injury during the match against Villarreal, which will keep him sidelined for the remainder of the season.

In light of this, the club president has asked Carvajal for recommendations on potential replacements during his absence. According to Defensa Central, Carvajal responded unequivocally, stating, “The best is Lucas Vázquez; he will never let you down, sir.” This aligns with the club’s stance, which Carlo Ancelotti has echoed in his press conferences.

The Italian coach emphasized that “Lucas Vázquez provides us with great confidence, and we’ll discuss this during the international break. The transfer market is closed, so our options are limited.” Carlo Ancelotti also noted, “We need to manage the team effectively, and with only one full-back available, Lucas Vázquez, we must evaluate who can step into that role.”
