I think after last year’s insane performance, it was really hard for them to see the real trouble. Benzema is a great player, but he is aging fast, and one day he will become a bad player and there is really not something that they could do to keep him performing at this level. Which means that they will need to get a brand new striker that would make them much better.
Real Madrid should as possible preparing the replacement for Karim Benzema position because I don't think enough one year only how to find great and potential forward. Bad started in this season with Karim Benzema despite injury and last several match got regular position he can't scoring goals although have contribution build team working how to give space for Rodrygo and Vinicius Jr to score goals.
Mbappe is the name, I mean he does want to play for them, so the only thing left right now is to convince PSG, which as we all know is a very very difficult job, but also it will require a ton of money at the same time. If they somehow could manage to do this, then they will be great for at least another 10 years.
Seems Mbappe is not priority right now after he has extended contract with PSG last season, actually Mbappe not happy right now with PSG and want to leave at next window transfer open, seems not easy because all team have to pay most expensive values transfer, he has chance last season to leave PSG with free transfer but rejected with Real Madrid offering and prefer keep extended contract.
