Real Madrid is determined to strengthen the striker’s position for next season. Merengue coach Carlo Ancelotti wants a footballer guaranteed to replace Benzema when the Frenchman is not available or needs a rest
Last season, the Real Madrid side had a really bad time when Karim Benzema could not play or had to leave the field quickly
The three strikers for Real Madrid last season were the French Karim Benzema, who finished first. Serbian Luka Jovic, who did not take advantage of his chances, and Spanish Dominican Mariano Diaz, who does not fit in with Carlo Ancelotti’s plans
Neither Jovic nor Mariano Diaz took advantage of the minutes they passed and reinforced the idea that Real Madrid need another striker position for next season, which will start in a few months
At the moment, Real Madrid have already released Luka Jovic, who went to Fiorentina after a secret pass through the Merengue team. The only thing missing is Mariano, who refuses to make things easier
Mariano wants to fulfill his contract, which expires in the summer of 2023. He earns a salary of close to five million euros per season and will not leave unless another team offers him that amount or if a European club knocks on his door
Similarly, Real Madrid confirmed the departure of Borja Mayoral, who has been on loan to Getafe in recent months. The blue square is your new destination. Madrid paid 10 million euros to the 14-time European champion
Ancelotti tried to find a solution within the team to find a replacement for Benzema, but the results were not as expected
For this reason, Real Madrid have made the decision to go to the market if Mariano Diaz ends up leaving the Meiring team in the coming weeks
One of the options on the table is to sign a veteran centre-forward who will accept the role of substitute for Karim Benzema. He should be content with playing the second parts and the occasional starting match
Here are some options that could fit in with Italian coach Carlo Ancelotti’s plan
Edinson Cavani: Uruguayan striker Edinson Cavani is one of the options that has looked strong in recent weeks. He is a free agent after the termination of his contract with Manchester United
The Uruguayan striker will accept the role of the substitute and will look good playing in Spain, a country he has always loved. He has offers but he is still waiting for a call from Florentino Perez
Cavani is a footballer who guarantees goals and has extensive experience in European football. It’s far from the meringue box and everything depends on the board
The problem is that he has an interesting proposal from Valencia to which he must respond. Plus, time is running out and he can’t wait forever for the white club
Cristiano Ronaldo: He is often considered the best and most complete soccer player and goalscorer in the world, and one of the best players of all time, by a large number of people and the press associated with the sport, as well as one of the most media personalities in the world. his generation. With 813 goals, he is the top scorer in the history of professional football, and with the 450 goalscorer for Real Madrid in history
He is also the Real Madrid player who needed the least number of matches (92) to reach one hundred goals in the National League and the player who needed the least number of matches (140) to reach 150 goals in the history of the league and is the first football player. To the history of the competition that has managed to score against all the teams he has faced in one season, the only footballer able to score in six consecutive Clásicos, 36 or the only one to score in six consecutive visits to the Camp Nou, the highest rivalry on the field for whites
The Portuguese is crazy about returning to Real Madrid, but the white club closed the door to him because of his age and the ways he left in the summer of 2018
Edin Dzeko: The 36-year-old Inter Milan striker is interested in changing the landscape. In the Italian team he lost his fame and would be happy to go to Real Madrid
Like Cavani, he will accept the role of substitute for Karim Benzema and be satisfied with the regular minutes. It was offered this summer to the Merengue entity, according to Cadena SER, but was turned down by the 14-time European champion
He’s a player with a different profile than Karim Benzema. Dzeko is a zone forward, and he is one of those who wait a few meters from the goal to hit as soon as the ball reaches them
He dominates the air game and would be an interesting option for unscoring matches against teams that approach from behind and only concede opportunities on set pieces
Wissam Ben Yedder: The 32-year-old Monaco player has a market value of 25 million euros and is guaranteed goals, which is what Real Madrid are looking for
He knows LaLiga Santander well and will accept the role of substitute for Karim Benzema. It would be one of his last forays into the elite, but he was looking positively at making the leap for an all-time favorite to win all titles
He is a player who loves to move in the area and his weakest point is his aerial game even though he scored goals with a header. However, since it is 1.70 meters long, its specialty is the movement of the feet
