Real Madrid officials are exploring the possibility of signing a right-back during the January transfer window following the devastating news that Dani Carvajal will miss the remainder of the season due to a serious knee injury. With Carvajal sidelined, Carlo Ancelotti is left with limited options at right-back, with Lucas Vazquez being the only natural replacement. Eder Militao can also fill in if required, but the club is actively searching for reinforcements.

Trent Alexander-Arnold has emerged as a top target for Los Blancos in recent weeks, with the Liverpool star being strongly linked to a move to the Santiago Bernabéu. However, Real Madrid are also keeping an eye on Chelsea’s young right-back Josh Acheampong. According to The Independent, Acheampong is on Real Madrid’s shortlist, and the club is considering a move during the winter transfer window.

Acheampong has been closely monitored by Real Madrid for some time, and with Reece James and Malo Gusto ahead of him at Chelsea, a switch to the Spanish giants could provide more opportunities for the talented defender. While Acheampong is seen as a promising long-term option, Trent Alexander-Arnold remains the preferred candidate for Ancelotti’s squad at this stage.

With Real Madrid aiming to strengthen their defense for the remainder of the season, the upcoming January transfer window could be crucial for addressing the right-back position, as they look to fill the void left by Carvajal’s absence.
