At Real Madrid they are still focusing their efforts on finding a replacement for Karim Benzema up front. Mariano and Mayoral are the two options that Ancelotti has to rest the Frenchman, although both could leave the club this summer and this could increase the need to go to the market for a “9” replacement. There are many more affordable footballers who will be on the white team’s radar, according to the “Fichajes.net” portal
Ancelotti tested Eden Hazard and Rodrygo in the “false nine” position in a pre-season friendly against FC Barcelona. Neither option worked and the coach admitted that “you can tell when Benzema is not around”. These are the most accessible names for the club if you go to the market in search of nine
Edinson Cavani is the first name to appear in the list of future prospects in Real Madrid’s attacking line. The Uruguayan appeared on the verge of signing his move to Villarreal, but the deal has yet to be formalized. This is not the first time he has been linked to playing at the Bernabeu
Andrea Belotti is the second biggest striker without a team, like Cavani. The Italian footballer has terminated his contract with Turin and surprisingly, he has not signed with any club. He could have many offers from premium clubs. The 28-year-old was one of the most accurate scorers of his time in Serie A
Edin Dzeko is the oldest of the three (36) and has a contract with Inter until 2023. Lukaku’s arrival could rob him of a lot of fame next season. He was one of the names that appeared one day in Madrid
Footballer Timo Werner looked like a potential deal for Real Madrid not too long ago, and his status at Chelsea suggests an exit this summer. Newcastle is the club that has shown a great interest in signing him. Since he was in Leipzig it has been an old dream for the white team
