The last match against Osasuna was a setback for Real Madrid’s season. Three injuries in the first half forced three almost consecutive substitutions and saw Militao, Lucas Vazquez and Rodrygo all leave the pitch. They will be out of action for a period of time yet to be determined, but it affects the defence of Carlo Ancelotti’s side in particular.
Injuries are piling up for Real Madrid, with Courtois and Dani Carvajal out for the season, David Alaba not expected to be back until 2025 and Tchouameni out until December. They are just some of the nine absentees in the last 15 months that leave Real Madrid with just one centre-back, Rudiger, and two full-backs, Mendy and Fran Garcia. This is why the words of Jonathan Tah’s agent could be a message for Los Blancos.
Next summer Jonathan Tah will go to a big club, Bayern still have excellent chances

Jonathan Tah is looking for a team and is open to offers
There is still a long way to go until the winter transfer window, so players such as Asencio or Jacobo Ramon could have their chance in these two months of competition. This does not prevent the club from exploring the transfer market and the agent of one of the most attractive central defenders for the summer 2025 market, Jonathan Tah, has given some words leaving the doors open to his player to any club.
Pini Zahavi, Tah’s representative, told Die Welt: “The idea was for Tah to go to Bayern, the club was very keen to sign him. We would have liked to take some of the transfer income to Leverkusen.” The player’s agent did not stop there and continued to open the door to any move in the near future: “Unfortunately, Leverkusen asked too much. Next summer he will go to a big club, Bayern still have excellent chances to sign him. He will go to a big club next summer.”
It should be remembered that the footballer came through the ranks at Hamburg, just before spending a season at Fortuna Dusseldorf in the 2.Bundesliga, before joining Bayer Leverkusen in the 2015/16 season. With the team now coached by Xabi Alonso, he has already managed to become Bundesliga, DFB-Pokal and DFL-Supercup champion. The player has a contract with Leverkusen until June 2025 and is not closing the door on anything.
