Real Madrid considers recalling Marcos Llorente

Real are considering recalling Marcos Llorente from his loan spell at Alaves in January, reports AS.

Madrid suffered a blow earlier this week when Casemiro sustained an injury which is expected to keep him out of action for at least one month.

The Brazilian is the only out-and-out defensive midfielder in Zinedine Zidane’s squad and his absence has prompted the European champions to contemplate bringing back Llorente.

The 21-year-old anchorman, who came through the ranks at Real, has impressed for newly promoted Alaves since joining them on loan last month.
