Ximenes returned to the "Real" reserve team

Real Madrid head coach Alvaro Arbeloa has decided to return right-back David Ximenes to the Castilla team. This was reported by Zamin.uz.

This was reported by euro-football.ru. The 21-year-old player recently played in the main lineup of Real in a La Liga match against Valencia and showed a good performance.

In that match, Real won 2-0. Ximenes's performance was positively evaluated by the coaching staff and the team's fans.

He fully demonstrated his abilities and left an even better impression than expected. However, according to Marca, the situation later changed.

Alvaro Arbeloa discussed the matter with experienced player Daniel Carvajal. The 34-year-old defender was able to convince his coach in a personal conversation that he is important for the team.

For this reason, Ximenes was temporarily returned to the reserve team. Carvajal is expected to return to the main lineup in upcoming matches.

Competition for his position will intensify with the return of Trent Alexander-Arnold, who has recovered from injury. In this way, the harmony of experience and young players in Real's defense can continue.
