Real Madrid Manager Carlo Ancelotti open to returns for trio of young talents
Real Madrid manager Carlo Ancelotti has hinted at a potential return for three promising players as he looks to shape his squad for the upcoming season.
Rafa Marin, currently on loan at Alaves, has caught the eye with his performances in La Liga, prompting Ancelotti to consider integrating him into the first team as a rotational option in defense.
With an eye on bolstering the center-back position, Ancelotti sees Marin as a valuable asset, especially after experiencing defensive shortages due to injuries earlier in the season.
Similarly, midfielder Antonio Blanco, who has impressed while on loan at Deportivo Alaves, could find himself back at the Bernabeu next season, thanks to Real Madrid’s retained sporting rights and a buy-back clause.
While full-back Miguel Gutierrez has already departed for Girona, Ancelotti has not ruled out the possibility of the young talent making a return to the Spanish capital.
Gutierrez has been instrumental in Girona’s successes this season, attracting attention from clubs across Europe.
Real Madrid, holding onto a portion of his sporting rights and with a buy-back clause in place, could exercise their option to bring him back, particularly if they fail to secure their primary target, Bayern Munich’s Alphonso Davies.
Ancelotti’s acknowledgment of the potential returns of Marin, Blanco, and Gutierrez underscores Real Madrid’s commitment to nurturing young talent and building a squad capable of challenging for titles on multiple fronts.
As the summer transfer window approaches, the Italian manager’s words signal an openness to exploring all options to strengthen his squad for the challenges ahead.
