Due to several major absences at Real Madrid, Eduardo Camavinga could move to a new position this weekend.

Since the start of the season, Carlo Ancelotti has been used to dealing with numerous absences, and not the least. Thibaut Courtois, Eder Militao And David Alaba were victims of a ruptured cruciate ligament, major absences to which were occasionally added those of other executives such as Vinicius, Aurélien Tchouaméni, Dani Carvajal and even Eduardo Camavinga.

Camavinga in central defense?

On the eve of a new clash with Atlético Madrid in La Liga, it is Antonio Rudiger who is missing, the German defender suffering from a hamstring injury. With Alaba and Militao absent, Ancelotti will also not be able to count on Tchouaméni, used to helping out in central defense. At a press conference this Saturday, the Italian technician was asked about the possibility of replacing Ferland Mendy or Dani Carvajal in the axis, but he has another idea in mind. “He is very good at getting off the ball, very solid in duels and very fast. The sentry and central defender positions are the most similar because they are played more with the head than with energy.he explained.

Very versatile, the French international regularly plays as a midfielder, defensive midfielder and left back, so he could add a new position to his range during this Madrid derby.
