The striker position is one that is needed to increase attacks in the next season because this position has been abandoned by Benzema, so Real Madrid must have a plan to get a forward with better quality. Rumors of several forward players who are said to be joining Real Madrid have also not found a bright spot where until now there are still so many obstacles for Real Madrid to reach an agreement.
Barcelona is also having a bit of financial problems, making it difficult for them to bring in the players they need, so they are trying to take advantage of the potential for players who are more affordable to buy. Both of them will try to take advantage of the opportunities that exist and of course the competition next season will be much more competitive to fight for the La Liga title and competition in the Champions League.
Real Madrid's top scorer, Karim Benzema, posed a threat to his opponents. The Frenchman had the expertise to tighten things up for Los Blancos, and he scored spectacular foot and head goals. Perhaps Carlo Ancelotti will scout a suitable replacement for the striker; they will most likely struggle to play without him in the early stages of next season, but everything will return to normal for them as the season progresses. Carlo Ancelotti still has good frontlines, with Vinicius Junior and Rodrygo capable of scoring more goals for the team. While for the bluagrana, Xavi Hernandez will working entirely how to resolved the teams main weaknesses and fixed the challenges they're facing in top competitions.
If you take his record breaking season as an example, I think hardly anybody was expecting Benzema to stay on that level. That was so unreal when he scored all those impossible goals and decided the games again and again. But in the last season he wasn't a critical factor anymore. They already had to find alternative ways to score their goals as it was too risky to believe that they could fall back on Benzema when he is needed. They can now focus on signing a superstar striker and that is what they are aiming for with Mbappe, but even if it is not him I doubt that they are ok with Joselu only. He is not the one they are really looking for.
