Jose Mourinho is considering starting Denzel Dumfries as the right-back for Real Madrid's match against Racing Santander, according to a report by Diario AS. This decision comes after captain Federico Valverde was ruled out due to muscular discomfort. Trom Madrid's recent decision to start Valverde in recent games has led to limited playing time for Dumfries and Trent Alexander-Arnold.
The report suggests that Mourinho may opt for Dumfries over Alexander-Arnold due to the latter's lack of recent opportunities. Valverde's absence from training has also contributed to the right-back dilemma. Alexander-Arnold, while a playmaker, has yet to make a significant impact during his time at Real Madrid. Mourinho's choice will likely depend on the strengths of the opponents and the team's overall strategy.
