Mario Hermoso, current central defender of Roma, has recently been linked to Real Madrid as a possible reinforcement for the winter transfer market. The white team is facing a complicated defensive situation due to the long-term injuries of Eder Militao and Dani Carvajal, which has forced the club to look for alternatives to strengthen its squad.
The 29-year-old Spanish defender ended his contract with Atlético Madrid last summer and decided to start a new chapter in Italy. However, his name has resurfaced strongly on the Madrid agenda, and the player has not hesitated to leave open the possibility of returning to the club where he developed as a footballer.
"It is always an honor to be talked about in relation to great teams," Hermoso said in a recent interview with the newspaper AS. He also fondly recalled his time in the youth categories of Real Madrid, emphasizing the importance of that experience in his development. "I value greatly everything I learned at La Fábrica. Although I did not have the opportunity to establish myself in the first team, I am very proud of my time there."
Mario Hermoso would be willing to return
Hermoso also expressed his appreciation for Spanish football and his desire to compete again in LaLiga, indicating that returning to his country would be an attractive option at this point in his career. His experience in the Italian league, combined with his trajectory at Atlético de Madrid, positions him as an ideal candidate to reinforce the Madrid defense.
Real Madrid, which in recent years has opted to sell its young talents with a buy-back option, could consider this operation as a way to strengthen its defense with a proven quality player and white DNA.
