Real Madrid coach Xabi Alonso settled the position of Uruguayan player Federico Valverde from participating in the right -back position, before the next Villarreal in the Spanish league, after doubts about the possibility of pushing him in this center due to the defensive absences.
Valverde is outside the right -back accounts
The past days have witnessed a controversy over the possibility of Real Madrid’s dependence on Valverde as a right back, especially in light of the injury of Danny Carvajal and Trint Arnold. But the Spanish “Kobe” radio confirmed that the coach Alonso excluded this option, and that the player will not occupy this position against Villarreal.
Who will compensate for the absence of Carvajal?
According to the Spanish radio, the closest option against Alonso will be to pay Marko Asensio if he relies on a four -way defense plan, while Brazilian Edir Melitao will take over the task if the coach decided to play with three defenders in the back line.
Valverde’s comments about his position
Valverde emphasized in the last press conference that he does not prefer to play as a back, explaining: “I did not get to play as a back”, in a clear indication of his desire to continue his usual position in the middle of the field, which has still the controversy over his dispute with the coach.
What is the date of the Real Madrid match against Villarreal?
The Real Madrid and Villarreal confrontation will be held next Saturday at the Santiago Bernabeu Stadium, in the new round of the Spanish Premier League, and the match will start at ten o’clock in the evening Cairo and Makkah time.
