In Madrid, there are a few that gnaw at their brakes. We obviously think of young Endricks and Arda Güler, very little used by Carlo Ancelotti. But there is one in an even more complicated situation. At 28, Jesus Vallejo has no future for the Merengues. Free of any contract at the end of the season, the Spanish defender is royally ignored by his coach.

Lately, we are just a point on your situation. A few months before the end of his contract, Vallejo has only played ten minutes since the start of the season, after his catastrophic game in play against Alavés last September. This Tuesday, Reader gave a layer. The Spanish media explains that the Madrid staff has no more patience for a player who annoyed Ancelotti last January. The Italian had planned to set him out during the king's 16th finals against Deportivo Minera, but Vallejo said he did not feel 100%.

Vallejo annoys internally

An answer that upset the Merengue staff who wondered how a player who has also played little since the start of the season did not jump at the opportunity, even by not being 100%. From there, Ancelotti turned his back in Vallejo. Except that Reader explains to us that this decision was not unanimous in the Madrid locker room. Not because the players appreciated Vallejo, but because it prevented some from resting. In the end, Ancelotti had chosen to align Diego Aguado alongside Raul Asencio. But that's not all.

If Jesus Vallejo is no longer popular, it is also because the player did not fold the wishes of his club. Real Madrid assures that he has given no instructions to Carlo Ancelotti regarding his playing time. However, the Merengues have clearly invited Vallejo to leave several times. The goal of Casa Blanca was of course to recover some money before the end of its defender's contract. But the latter hung on to his contract and this winter, he rejected all the requests, especially from Turkey.
