Real Madrid have the opportunity to shore up their depleted backline in the January transfer window.
In recent years, Real Madrid have not made many moves in the winter transfer window. Los Blancos typically remain committed to the players they have despite injuries or underwhelming performances. Yet this season is unlike any other for Carlo Ancelotti's side. With an injury-ravaged defense, the Spanish giants might finally be compelled to welcome some new faces in January to strengthen their La Liga and Champions League title defenses.
Although plenty of non-defenders, including Kylian Mbappé and Vinícius Júnior, have gotten injured this season, Real Madrid still have decent depth in the midfield and the attack, leaving the defense as the glaring problem to target in the next month.
