Neither Lucas nor Militao: Ancelotti reveals the surprise right-back who will replace Carvajal at Real Madrid

Onda Cero has revealed an unexpected choice for Real Madrid’s right-back position, and it’s neither Lucas Vázquez nor Éder Militão.
As Real Madrid prepares for the January transfer window, the club faces a pressing need to address a string of injuries, compounded by a lack of summer signings that have left Carlo Ancelotti’s squad with limited options.
Onda Cero has confidently pointed out who could step in to replace Dani Carvajal, indicating that the club may not need to look far. In a recent discussion, Ortego and Onda Cero analyzed the situation at right-back, noting Ancelotti’s reluctance to promote youth academy players and hinting that a club legend might be the preferred option for this role.
Ortego remarked, “I think Ancelotti would rather play Valverde at right-back than promote a player from the academy,” highlighting the Italian coach’s concerns about trusting young talents in critical positions. The current lack of depth in the squad has led Ancelotti to look for secure and reliable solutions.
Ancelotti reportedly has reservations about depending on Lucas Vázquez in such a pivotal role, especially in key matches, and Fede Valverde is viewed as a safer alternative despite his reluctance to change positions.
However, the Uruguayan midfielder is opposed to this switch, as he believes it would negatively impact his overall effectiveness. Valverde is reportedly pushing hard to convince Ancelotti to reconsider, hoping to avoid being permanently shifted to the right-back role.
