Real Madrid is very seriously considering bringing Pepe back to the Royal Club during the winter transfer period to fill the deficit in the center back position after David Alaba's injury.
Real Madrid is looking for a new defender, and newspapers have presented many young and talented names around the world, but “The Athletic” revealed that Pepe, who is currently active with Porto, is at the top of the list of candidates to succeed Alaba.
Pepe, who is 40 years old, seems to be an ideal choice for the Real Madrid administration, which wants to sign a defender on a temporary basis until next summer, in addition to honoring him as one of the most important legends of the Merengue defenses in recent years.
What attracts the administration to choosing the Portuguese international is that he is living a very special period with Porto, and does not appear to be aging, so the technical benefit from his successor is guaranteed.
The report stated that the Real Madrid management was planning to sign Al-Nasr defender Aymeric Laporte, but the Saudi club closed the door on the possibility of leaving its defender under any circumstances.
Pepe played with Real Madrid for ten years from 2007 to 2017, during which he succeeded in achieving many titles such as the Champions League (3 times) and the Spanish League 3 times.
In total, Pepe wore the Real Madrid shirt in 334 matches in all tournaments, during which he scored 15 goals and assisted 20 others.
