Real Madrid’s assistant manager, Davide Ancelotti, son of head coach Carlo Ancelotti, has already communicated with Dani Carvajal’s replacement.
According to a report from Defensa Central, Davide’s message was simple but impactful: “You are the best, we trust you.”
This statement shows the confidence the coaching staff has in Lucas Vazquez, who is set to fill in for Carvajal during his absence.
Carvajal’s injury has dramatically affected Real Madrid’s season, forcing a shift in the team’s plans. With one of their key players sidelined, the club is now placing their faith in Vazquez.
The 33-year-old full-back received encouraging words from Davide Ancelotti yesterday, with the assistant coach offering full support and belief in his abilities.
Vazquez was assured
Davide reassured Vazquez that the club has complete confidence in him, making it clear that he is more than capable of stepping into a starting role.
Vazquez is expected to feature in the starting XI regularly now while Carvajal recovers, and the management considers him the top candidate for the right-back position.
This situation presents a challenge for the 33-year-old, but those within Real Madrid’s higher ranks are confident he will rise to the occasion.
Real Madrid are confident
The club has seen him perform admirably in the past whenever called upon, and they believe he will once again prove himself during this critical period.
As for any potential signings, the club is not expected to bring in new players until the January transfer window. Although options will be reviewed in the winter, it is unlikely that any new additions will be made to cover Carvajal’s position before then.
For now, it’s up to Vazquez to manage this new responsibility, and Real Madrid trust that he is more than capable of filling in for one of their key players.
