Real Madrid have already an action plan to fill Militao's long-term absence. In addition to having the extra help of Mendy and Carvajal as emergency centrals, Castilla central defender Marvel (20 years old) is promoted to the first team.

The powerful defender from the subsidiary has been training these days with the first team and his conditions have convinced Carlo Ancelotti. Marvel will be the complement for a defense in which the responsibility, for the inner zone, will be carried out by Alaba, Rüdiger and Nacho.

Marvel in principle will not have a first-team file and will stay registered with the subsidiary. Of course, he will train daily with the first team and will be part, presumably regularly, of Ancelotti's calls.

He played a few minutes this Wednesday afternoon in the friendly between Castilla against Unionistas, but from now on, he will be involved more with the first team of Real Madrid.
