I am not sure who else Real could get, but focusing too much on midfield which is already decent enough is not the way to go. First of all they always needed a striker, that season Benzema had which won him ballon d'or made them suspicious about getting one but they need one without a doubt.

Since we are talking about Real here, they can't just get a decent player, they need a big name, not sure how big of a name they will get, not like they will get Mbappe, but I bet that they are going to get someone very special without a doubt. They have no other choice, they have to get one and that will be a very important situation. If they can get a good one then they are going to be good, if not then they are going to be a pretty boring team again.
