Portuguese was one of the options to reinforce the center of defense in January, after Alaba’s serious injury
According to Diario As , Real Madrid tried to sign Diogo Leite , on loan until the end of the season, to reinforce their defense in January.
The Merengues were surprised by the Portuguese’s performances in the double clash with Union Berlin , in the group stage of the Champions League , and opted for the former FC Porto player , as it was a cheaper operation.
This decision came after Alaba ‘s serious injury , who will be sidelined until the end of the season. After Militão and Rudiger , it was the Austrian’s turn, with Ancelotti left with only Nacho as the only central defender of origin. The Italian coach has used Tchouaméni and Carvajal alongside the team captain.
