Ancelotti believes Miguel lacks defensively, Madrid's plan on youngster revealed

Carlo Ancelotti believes that Miguel Gutierrez must improve defensively before he can be considered an option for the first team, Relevo report (5 stars).

If the left-back continues at Real Madrid Castilla next season, he is unlikely to get too many chances at the first team.

Thus, Real Madrid plan to loan Miguel out to a first-division team.

It was believed that the 20-year-old could be promoted to the first team after Marcelo's departure. However, it appears that David Alaba will be the one to play on the left when Ferland Mendy, the first option, is unavailable.

Miguel is an undisputed starter for Raul at Real Madrid Castilla. He's also made 10 appearances for the senior squad over the past two years, providing two assists.
