Nacho and Jesus Vallejo facing likely Real Madrid exits this summer (AS)

  /  autty

Nacho Fernandez and Jesus Vallejo are both likely candidates to be sold by Real Madrid this summer following the arrival of £43million defender Eder Militao.

Militao became the first signing of Zinedine Zidane's second spell as Real manager earlier this month when Porto agreed to part with the 21-year-old Brazil international at the end of the season.

Despite his hefty price tag, it is expected that Militao will have to fight for a regular starting spot at the Bernabeu, with Sergio Ramos and Raphael Varane both established key man at the heart of Real's defence.

Militao's arrival may not immediately alter Real's best XI, but it will cause a stir in the squad.

According to AS, Vallejo, 22, will slide down the pecking order once Militao joins up with his new team-mates and is almost certain to leave, either on loan or permanently.

AS also claim that 29-year-old Nacho's hopes of remaining in Madrid will be negatively affected.

Nacho has featured in half of Real's 28 La Liga games this season, while Vallejo has made just one appearance as a sub.
