WHAT HAPPENED?
A recent report from Spanish publication MARCA has revealed that Real Madrid have intensified their pursuit of RB Leipzig's ace centre-back Castello Lukeba. The Spanish heavyweights want Lukeba, but he is not the only name on their list, the report further mentions.
(C)GettyImagesTHE BIGGER PICTURE
Real Madrid have struggled this season, with their back-line looking shaky against both Barcelona and AC Milan as they conceded a remarkable seven goals in just two appearances recently.
Not just that, but the departure of Nacho has robbed the team of an extra reliable option in defence.
David Alaba, meanwhile, has been recovering from an anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury, while Jesus Vallejo is nowhere close to earning a shout in the XI. The fact that Carlo Ancelotti prefers defensive midfielder Aurelien Tchouameni in the heart of the defence over Vallejo speaks volumes...
DID YOU KNOW?
Before Manchester United sealed the agreement to sign Leny Yoro, Real Madrid were frontrunners to sign the budding teenager. With that plan out of the window now, they are also tracking Jonathan Tah of Bayer Leverkusen, Vitor Reis of Palmeiras, and Aymeric Laporte of Al-Nassr as the other alternatives for the centre-back position.
Getty Images SportWHAT NEXT FOR CASTELLO LUKEBA?
The 21-year-old Frenchman will next be seen in action on Saturday, November 9, when RB Leipzig host Borussia Monchengladbach. Lukeba and Co. are currently placed second in the Bundesliga, just three points behind leaders Bayern Munich.
