Real Madrid 'Turn Down' Ancelotti's Transfer Request

Real Madrid 'Turn Down' Ancelotti's Transfer Request

Real Madrid have reportedly turned down manager Carlo Ancelotti's request to sign a certain player.

It has been a very busy transfer window for Los Blancos so far, having brought in Fran Garcia, Brahim Diaz, Jude Bellingham and Joselu Mato (loan) in the last couple weeks.

However, it seems Ancelotti is still keen on adding to his squad for the 2022/2023 season particularly in the full-back area.

Spanish outlet Cadena SER have reported that Ancelotti's request to sign a new full-back is not of top priority for the club's hierarchy.

The full-back positions were an issue for Los Blancos last season, with Ferland Mendy struggling with injury while Dani Carvajal was not at usual best for most of the campaign.

Garcia has been brought in to help provide competition at left-back, the right side of the defence remains an issue heading into the new campaign.

Reports in Spain claim that Ancelotti has been frustrated with the club during the transfer window and the rejection of a new full-back is not going to make things any smoother with one year left on his contract.

Ancelotti remains a top target for the Brazil national side, who have been without a head coach since Tite resigned after the 2022 FIFA World Cup.
