I thought Real Madrid would sign a replacement for Benzema as well but there is nobody on their radar seemingly. Ancelotti must be targeting to move on with Rodrygo in this position from now on. Rodrygo isn't even playing as a single striker now. Ancelotti still continues with a 4-3-1-2 formation as it works for now. He has Vinicius right beside him.
Or Jude Bellingham will score the goals that Benzema scored. The 103 million euro transfer fee must be worth it and he showed that in the last game: 2 goals scored and the header was sensational, also the pass from toni kross brilliant. With 3 goals in 2 games, Jude Bellingham is the best goal scorer in the league, I think it will continue like this.
Even though Bellingham managed to score goals and assists but in reality, Bellingham is a midfielder who is of course very different from Benzema position. So yes, for now there is Kroos and at the very least, that also gives Bellingham a good chance in attack and scoring goals. So yes, if later Kroos and Modric leave or retire, then it seems that Bellingham will also fill the position left by the two players. But maybe, if Bellingham has a very good instinct for scoring goals, then maybe Bellingham will become a target man in the lone striker position later.
Real Madrid will suffer from the imperfection of Benzema's place in every match. Because Benzema has been a unique and extraordinary sticker for the Real Madrid team who has helped Real Madrid achieve various achievements over the years. So Real Madrid need to add a good striker to the team to play in his place.
