Florian Wirtz of Bayer 04 Leverkusen looks on during the Bundesliga match between VfL Bochum 1848 and Bayer 04 Leverkusen at Vonovia Ruhrstadion on November 9, 2024 in Bochum, Germany. Real Madrid have the worst defensive injury crisis in world football after Eder Militao joined Dani Carvajal with a torn ACL, leaving the Merengue club with only Antonio Rudiger as a healthy, full-time senior starter in the back four.

Real Madrid targetting former player as a strategic signing

Recent reports from Fichajes have suggested that Rafa Marin could be on the verge of making a surprising return to Real Madrid sooner than anticipated. The young defender transferred to Napoli for approximately €12 million during the summer transfer window. However, his time in Italy has not unfolded as expected, and the circumstances at Napoli have proven to be less than favourable for him. So far this season, Marin has struggled to establish himself within the Napoli squad. He has not yet made his debut in the Italian Serie A and has only managed to play a mere 90 minutes in the Coppa Italia. This lack of game time is far from what both the player and the Napoli management envisioned when they decided to bring him on board. The limited opportunities have raised concerns among Marin’s s...
