Real Madrid manager Carlo Ancelotti is set to bench one of his forwards as part of a “mini revolution,” according to Marca.
Ancelotti is considering dropping one of Kylian Mbappé, Vinicius, or Rodrygo as he plans a tactical shift.
Since Mbappé’s arrival as a free agent this summer, Real Madrid has struggled to find cohesion on the field, prompting Ancelotti to consider moving to a four-midfielder formation.
The Italian coach aims to restore balance to the team, making them more solid defensively without compromising their attacking prowess.
While this new approach won’t be used in every game, it is expected to feature in key matches, especially away from the Santiago Bernabéu and in high-pressure situations.
