Real Madrid are in a difficult position at the moment, particularly in the defensive unit, as we get closer to the much-anticipated El Clasico match that will take place later this month. The match has been highly anticipated.

As a result of injury, the Spanish giants have been without Eder Militao and, more recently, David Alaba. However, it seems likely that these two Real Madrid defenders will not be the only ones sidelined for the future matches.

There is a possibility that Nacho Fernandez will be suspended for four matches.

During Real Madrid’s match against Girona, experienced defender Nacho Fernandez was shown a red card, which added to the team’s growing list of problems.

According to Mundo Deportivo, the booking could end up being very expensive for Real Madrid, as the center-back is now at risk of receiving a suspension that lasts for four games as a result of the infraction.

After making contact with Portu, Nacho was cautioned with a yellow card at first. However, after reviewing what happened, the referee did not hesitate to give the defender a red card and an automatic ejection from the game.

According to the report, Nacho might be facing a four-game suspension as a result of his vicious tackle, which resulted in Portu requiring medical help.

It’s possible that Nacho won’t be able to play for Barcelona.

If Nacho were to receive a four-game suspension, it would be disastrous for Real Madrid because it would mean the defender would likely be unable to play in the forthcoming El Clasico, which will take place later this month.

In addition to the game against Barcelona, there is a possibility that Nacho will be sidelined for important matches against CA Osasuna, Sevilla, and Rayo Vallecano.

Carlo Ancelotti, who already has limited choices in center defense, could have a genuine dilemma on his hands if Nacho is unable to play against Barcelona in particular because of his absence.

Real Madrid may even be forced to settle for a makeshift option like Ferland Mendy as the partnering center-back for Antonio Rudiger due to the absence of Nacho, Alaba, and Militao due to injuries. Nacho and Alaba were both injured.

There is also the possibility of playing Alvaro Carrillo, despite the fact that the youngster has not yet made a single appearance in La Liga so far this season.
