Real Madrid manager Carlo Ancelotti is planning to make some changes in midfield amid the club's injury crisis, as per Madrid Universal. This is due to the potential absence of Rodrygo, Eder Militao, and Lucas Vazquez. Militao is most likely out for the rest of the season. Meanwhile, Vazquez and Rodrygo are currently recovering.
Federico Valverde could be deployed to the right-back position in the coming weeks. The move might be due to Dani Carvajal and Vazquez's absence. Luka Modric is also expected to feature regularly in midfield as his creativity could be pivotal for Madrid in the coming weeks. Ancelotti is also reportedly looking to use Brahim Diaz in the attacking side of the midfield.
If Vazquez becomes fit and available, Valverde will return to the midfield, and he could feature as a defensive midfielder with Eduardo Camavinga. The pair are expected to be the main players in midfield. Meanwhile, Aurelien Tchouameni who's currently injured, will serve as a backup option in the coming weeks.

Finally, Dani Ceballos is expected to feature frequently in the coming weeks due to the injury crisis in the midfield. The Spaniard has only made six appearances for Madrid this season. Los Blancos will face Leganes in the league this weekend on Sunday, November 24.
Southampton are interested in signing Real Madrid's Endrick on loan in January 2025 - Reports
Southampton are looking to sign Endrick on loan from Real Madrid in the upcoming transfer window, as per Diario Sport (via Transfer News Live).
Since joining Los Blancos in July 2024, the Brazilian has struggled to feature regularly. In the 2024-25 campaign, Endrick has registered three goal contributions despite playing only 122 minutes.
Even though he has made 10 appearances, Endrick has most featured as a second-half substitute. His lack of game time could be a situation that Endrick will be evaluating as Southampton are currently looking to sign him on loan.
If he fails to secure more minutes on the pitch in the coming weeks, Endrick might be looking to secure a loan move.
