Real looking for new centre-back

Spanish giants Real Madrid are in the market for a new central defender, according to El Mundo Deportivo.

With Sergio Ramos, Raphael Varane and Jesus Vallejo all missing the Valencia clash, where los Blancos narrowly avoided defeat, Zinedine Zidane is looking to improve his defensive options.

Nacho is the fourth central defender at the moment and his impeccable injury record is the reason why he has played so many games these past few years, but Real Madrid will sign another experienced centre-back if an opportunity arises.

Zinedine Zidane is aware that Sergio Ramos misses quite a few games through suspension every season, meaning that if another centre-back gets injured, the team will be in real problems.

Despite already trailing Barcelona two points, Real Madrid have been made 4/5 favourites to defend the league trophy.
