Real Madrid need to refresh in the attacking position, even though they already have Benzema who can still be relied on, but Benzema age is a reason for Madrid to immediately look for alternatives.
Of course Don Carlo is very aware of the current condition of his team, in addition to the age factor that is not young anymore, Benzema is also starting to get injured frequently. Of all the players that Madrid currently has, there is no need to make improvements in all lines, because until now Real Madrid performance is still fine. Only the striker position is the main focus and the player being targeted must also have good quality, at least being able to replace Benzema role.
Anything can happen, and Ancelotti has to be alert earlier than waiting for things to get out of hand. Benzema needs a suitable replacement and so far Real Madrid has not shown who really deserves the position. I didn't expect bad conditions from Real Madrid like other clubs who lost important players and suffered many setbacks. So it's better to prepare early. Real Madrid's finances are unquestionable because they are already rich enough to buy quality players.
There are still no plans that Ancelotti has revealed during the transfer window and the latest one may be buzzing about Mbappe but I doubt he will go to Madrid and Ancelotti has also given the impression that this is unlikely to happen.
But indeed, if you look at Benzema's condition so far, his performance can be said to have decreased even though he can still score goals, but it is a little difficult and different compared to last season.
