Florentino Prez has it clear. Benzema is untouchable. Ancelotti also thinks the same. And so it will continue to be for the next few months, as long as the Frenchman’s body resists. The striker has one year left on his contract, but the leaders of the entity are convinced that the rope will last two more campaignsthat is, until June 2024. The deal will be finalized shortly.. There is no doubt about this point. all of it lowers the tension-need to incorporate a second nine of reference to the squad led by the Italian coach. There is no rush and unless the market and the need to sell a club at the last minute favor it, it will not be during this summer.
The president of Real Madrid has let everyone know. He is not going to sign for signing and he will take the necessary time to face an operation of a nine who could be the benchmark for Real Madrid for many years. Finding another Benzema on the market is the task ahead for the sports management and not for this summer precisely.
Ancelotti knows it and as it happened last summer he has already commented in Valdebebas: “We’ll come up with something”alluding to the quality of the squad and the ability to turn around complicated situations.
a complex search
The radar is already working, but everyone is aware that the search will be long and complicated. The arrival of Mbapp and that possibility of playing nine would have alleviated the situation, but that is now history and at Real Madrid they don’t think about the Frenchman. Chapter closed, at least for a time and much would have to change the situation for it to reenter the plans except for an approach caused by the striker himself. In any case, doubt would hover over any kind of conversation with the striker. He has earned it.
The moment when Florentino Prez realized that Mbapp had changed
Now it’s time to be attentive, to check the evolution of certain players, to solve the passport problem and to find the key again, something that has happened with Valverde, Militao, Alaba, Rodrygo and Vinicius. For the campaign that starts on August 12 in Helsinki, Real Madrid has the two Brazilians and Benzema as offensive references, but also there appears a hazard who must demonstrate involvement in daily work, perseverance and know how to take advantage of opportunities.
Haaland’s evolution
After doubting the incorporation of Haland for that of the safe ownership of Benzema, at Real Madrid they want to clear up any kind of doubt that existed with the Norwegian and see closely what Manchester City is capable of doing. It speaks of the existence of that release clause two years have passed (150 million euros) and the idea is clear, since the signing of another striker now could compromise future movements due to certain contracts, as has been shown in past summers and will happen again in the coming weeks .
From there, it remains to clear the unknown of Asensio (third top scorer of the season that is about to end), plus the possible help of the youth squad Latasa and the permanent doubts with Jović Y Marianwho aim to leave, but at the moment they only threaten to give, but they do not give.
The future of multiplayer
The priority right now at Real Madrid is to resolve the future of several players, lighten the template a bit and, from there, think of some other possible reinforcement. The market is not closed, but neither is the door wide open. Before entering let them out and the first thing is to find a destination for those on loan. Everyone has it very difficult to continue wearing white Madrid.
