Real Madrid manager Carlo Ancelotti has chosen a new captain following Nacho Fernandez’s departure as a free agent this summer.
Madrid is undoubtedly poised to compete across all competitions next season. With Kylian Mbappe joining their squad, Fernandez will watch his cherished team from Saudi Arabia while beginning his new journey.
Ancelotti has appointed seasoned midfielder Luka Modric as the new skipper of Real Madrid. Dani Carvajal and Lucas Vazquez will serve as vice-captains.
Despite the team retaining significant experience, they have bid farewell to two important players in Nacho and the retired Toni Kroos. This marks the fourth consecutive year that Real Madrid will see their captain change, following the exits of Marcelo, Karim Benzema, and Sergio Ramos.
