For Sunday's 4-2 win over Sevilla, Real Madrid coach Carlo Ancelotti raised eyebrows with his team selection. Despite Ferland Mendy and Fran Garcia being available for selection, the Italian coach chose to start Eduardo Camavinga at left back.
Camavinga has played in the position on several occasions, but not since the 2022-23 season. Ace for ReliefThe decision was made by Ancelotti because he is not convinced by Mendy or Garcia.
Mendy in particular has had a very disappointing start to the season. He had a good 2023-24 campaign, during which he was a solid starter, but things have not gone his way in recent months. Garcia has stepped in over the past two weeks, but even he has struggled to impress.
Real Madrid they plan to address their left-back position next summer, with plans to sign Alphonso Davies. In any case, if instead he signs a new agreement at Bayern Munich, it may be the case that no one arrives.
