Monaco, through its website, has made official the signing of Portuguese central Carvalho contract ending at the end of the season at Real Madrid
Although Real Madrid has not said anything about it, the Monaco has used his website to announce the agreement with Carvalho. The Portuguese central joined Real Madrid for three seasons from Chelsea while Mourinho reached the white team. At that time we saw that the Portuguese would become the image of coach on the field, as it was the third time they would match after Porto and Chelsea.
Great first season
Carvalho performance should be separated into two parts, the first season where he was a true leader in the defense and started throughout the year. If I had to put a note to say that first season he deserves a remarkably high.
Lio in Portugal and selections
But then everything changed. In August having an affair with the Portuguese, being convened for the Portuguese team decides to leave saying concentration was fit but it seemed that he had not. That was the end in their selection and leaves me feeling that the time of the beginning of the decline of Carvalho. For starters it was with a sense indirectly criticizing his teammates, as it seemed that he was not going to play at the expense of other players (as the case of Pepe). Then came the injuries and that was the end of it. Both last season and this use by Mourinho has been almost symbolic, when required to meet but playing very little, therefore, that his absence had not been noticed practically nothing. These two seasons have been there playing between the approved and suspense. He's been far from the center it was, but has done well when Mourinho has decided to play.
Bye
With his move to Monaco is leaving Real Madrid one of the best center in Europe in recent years. I wish the best for Carvalho at Monaco and where the future may bring: Good luck.
