Indeed, after the departure of Benzema, they still do not have a replacement that is at least equal. And with Mbappe, this would be an extraordinary thing, but it's still wishful thinking at this time, because it's still just rumours. But indeed, the rumors in the current transfer market are stronger than before. If previously PSG could make such an attractive offer for Mbappe, this season might be different again. But, will Mbappe return to how he used to be, pressing his desire to go to Real Madrid and stay at PSG for certain reasons and offers.
Real Madrid still difficult looking for replacement Karim Benzema after tough negotiations for signing Mbappe, Joselu as current transfer for filling Karim Benzema position I don't think has the same level because his career spent with mediocre teams and this season Joselu failed help Espanyol relegated to Segunda Division. Florentino Perez looks not sure want to sign Mbappe in this season because prefer waiting when his contract expiry with PSG next season.
Its difficult for Carlo Ancelotti how to manage well performance next season in La Liga or Champion League after Benzema departure and not easy sign the same replacement with Benzema level. But Real Madrid have full active in transfer window signing many potential midfielder from Jude Bellingham Brahim Diaz and last young potential recruitment Arda Güler.
Yes, Real Madrid are very worried about their attack line after the departure of Benzema. Ancelotti will certainly be very confused with such a situation. He must really work hard to be able to do something that is expected of Joselu. In his last season with Real Madrid, of course, Ancelotti really wanted to win the La Liga title, but I doubt very much his expectations given the current squad for the Whites.
If Mbappe fails to get this season Perez should have brought in an alternative striker like Firmino who is quite experienced but who would have thought that Perez would be more focused on recruiting young players to complete the Real Madrid squad.
