Carlo Ancelotti is reportedly preparing a wacky new experiment. According to Marcathe Italian technician could try to replace Ferland Mendy in midfield to compensate for the absence of Aurélien Tchouameni. In any case, far from being convincing since the start of the season, the former Bordeaux player was injured against AC Milan and is expected to miss a month of competition with the Madrid club.
Considered by ‘Carletto’ as the only player who can play in this position – news which must delight Eduardo Camavinga – Aurélien Tchouameni therefore has no designated replacement for this sentinel position. This week, the Italian tested Ferland Mendy in this number 6 role in training. In the coming weeks, Real Madrid could therefore find themselves with Eduardo Camavinga, left back, and Ferland Mendy, midfielder, because after all, why not? First answers to come this Saturday from 2 p.m., against Osasuna.
