Real Madrid in turmoil looking for Ronaldo's replacement

Neymar has officially rejected Real. So has his teammate Kylian Mbappe. The plan to build a new "galaxy" with the Royal team is facing bankruptcy as the summer passes.

AboveAS, journalist Carlos Forjanes even concluded that no blockbuster deal would be triggered. Recently, the newspaperMarcasaid "Los Blancos" have Mauro Icardi in their sights. At the age of 25, the Argentine striker can meet the requirements set by "Los Blancos".

Icardi is a Serie A striker with 118 goals. Real Madrid want a goal machine who can score 40 goals/season or more, Icardi seems to be a good fit. Unfortunately, football in 2018 is very different from the past. Clubs are now richer, no longer easily "seduced" to sell talent to giants.

Evidence that Paris Saint Germain is ready to pour cold water on Real's ambitions when they know that the Royal team wants to buy Neymar and young French talent Mbappe. With strong financial resources, the French giant is more than capable of keeping their precious gems.

As for Icardi, he plays a key role in the plan to regain the glory of Inter Milan's owners. Last week, coach Luciano Spalletti was confident that his student will continue to stick with the club. The two sides are close to completing a contract extension, in which Icardi's release clause will increase to 110 million euros.

Not to mention that Gazzetta dello Sport reported that Icardi really wants to stay with Inter Milan for a long time. The Argentine striker is also very aware of the problem, the pressure at Real Madrid is much greater than in Italy.

Madridistas are all too familiar with the goals Ronaldo produces every week, and they will expect the same from his replacement.

Icardi’s status at Inter is untouchable. He has also built up a reputation for himself with his goalscoring numbers. Trading that for Real would be risky.

The above facts show that Real Madrid face a very difficult task. They have not been able to find a replacement for Ronaldo. The paradox is that "Los Blancos" do not lack money, but because the targets they approach are too difficult to reach.

It is not known how President Florentino Perez will fulfill his promise, but it is likely that Real Madrid's policy will change significantly this summer.

"Madrid always wants a lot. We will build and strengthen the current force, as well as strengthen the squad in the future. Real Madrid already has an excellent group of players with winning DNA and will continue to add many more great names," said Mr. Perez.

In the past, Real Madrid was a paradise for every player. Or as new signing Odriozola of "Los Blancos" described at the team's introduction, "when someone asks you if you want to go to Real Madrid, it's like being a child being asked if you want to go to Disneyland. The answer is always yes".

But now, not only Real Madrid is Disneyland, but other teams can also turn into wonderful game gardens. So it can be said that Mauro Icardi's target is now also difficult for "Los Blancos" to reach.
