The injury to Dani Carvajal has left a significant gap in Real Madrid's lineup, and Carlo Ancelotti faces the challenge of finding a suitable replacement within the squad. The Spanish full-back will be out of competition for several months, forcing the Italian coach to seek immediate solutions while the club decides whether to turn to the transfer market. Despite the option of reinforcing the position externally, Ancelotti has two existing choices in the team: Lucas Vázquez and Fede Valverde, who could take on the responsibility of covering the right flank.

-Lucas Vázquez

Lucas Vázquez is the natural candidate to replace Carvajal, as he has played that role on several occasions over the past few seasons. Although his original position is as a winger, Vázquez has effectively adapted to the right-back position, demonstrating defensive solidity and the ability to contribute in attack. His experience in that area of the field, combined with his understanding of Ancelotti's system, makes him a reliable option to address the absence of the starting full-back. Furthermore, his versatility has been crucial in previous seasons, making him a valuable asset for the coach.

-Fede Valverde

On the other hand, Fede Valverde emerges as a less common but equally interesting alternative. Although the Uruguayan is more comfortable playing in the midfield, his physical and tactical qualities allow him to adapt to different positions. His speed, ability to cover large distances, and game reading give him an ideal profile to perform as a right-back in emergency situations. While Valverde performs better in the midfield, his capacity to overlap and recover balls makes him a valid solution to cover Carvajal's absence.

With these two options on the table, Ancelotti will have to decide who will take over in the coming months. Meanwhile, the club continues to assess the possibility of strengthening the squad in the transfer market, although for now, the coach relies on internal solutions to maintain the team's competitiveness in all competitions.
