The new Real Madrid coach Xabi Alonso decided to keep a young nugget in his ranks. Indeed, at only 18 years old, Diego Aguado has become one of the most courted young people in Fábrica, to the point that Real Madrid recently refused an offer of nearly three million euros from Borussia Dortmund according to Marca. Versatile defender, capable of evolving in the axis as on the left flank, Aguado is considered strategic by the club for Castilla, but especially by Xabi Alonso, who follows him closely. The former Bayer Leverkusen coach had already included it in his plans for the Club World Cup, proof of growing consideration around the young Spanish.
Trained under the benevolent eye of Alvaro Arbeloa, who considers him as an example of rigor and ambition, Aguado will take on the Castilla captain's armband this season. But his future could be written higher even more. On the shelves of several European clubs and spotted by Davide Ancelotti last year, he embodies this rare profile that Real wishes to keep warm. For Xabi Alonso, it is even a name to remember, a defensive joker that he especially does not want to see spinning.
