Called up for Real Madrid’s pre-season by Carlo Ancelotti, Jacobo Ramón came on as a substitute in two of the Madrid team’s three friendly matches (against FC Barcelona and against Chelsea). And his performances clearly pleased the Italian. Registered in Real’s squad for this Liga season, the 19-year-old player wears number 31. According to Asthis means that he can still play with Castilla. But it is unlikely that he will play with Real’s reserves.
Indeed, the Iberian daily reports that Jacobo Ramón will benefit from Nacho’s departure, David Alaba’s absence and the non-recruitment of the central defender position. Florentino Pérez’s club tried to attract Leny Yoro, in vain. The French defender chose to join Manchester United. Since then, the echoes coming from Spain indicate that no central defender will be recruited. Real already have Antonio Rüdiger, Eder Militao, David Alaba, Jesús Vallejo and even Aurélien Tchouaméni, who was sometimes used in this position by Ancelotti. Ramón will probably join the rotation.
