Real Madrid top transfer targets for 2018/19 season
Here are the 3 leading players Real Madrid are looking to sign as they try to fill the void left by Cristiano Ronaldo’s move.
Real Madrid have lined up their top transfer targets in preparation for the 2018/19 La Liga season and their aim is to add depth to the team. With Zinedine Zidane’s departure from the Bernabeu along with their talisman, Cristiano Ronaldo, real transformation is needed at the Bernabeu.
The appointment of Julen Lopetegui as manager has led to the signing of Spain right-back Alvaro Odriozola from Real Sociedad but Real Madrid president Florentino Perez claims more significant players are on the way to strengthen the squad. To be realistic, finding a Cristiano Ronaldo type of player will a very tough task and winning a jackpot at online casino australia might be easier. Ronaldo was the backbone of Real Madrid for nine seasons scoring 450 goals in 438 matches so he’s not going to be easy to replace.
Who is on the Radar?
There are several names on the Real Madrid’s shortlist and football fans across the globe are waiting to see who they bring in. Los Blanco’s have managed to lure the best talent to the Bernabeu and they will do it again.
- Neymar– Real Madrid president Perez has been a long-term fan of Neymar Jr. Madrid have tried to secure the Brazilian international’s signature in the past but have failed twice. The first time was in 2005 when Neymar had trials which were part of Robinho’s project. The second occasion was when Barcelona signed Neymar in 2013. This time Neymar could be heading to Madrid as he looks to land the Ballon d’Or and has a chance to shine now that Ronaldo is no longer there.
- Kylian Mbappe– The 19-year-old French sensation has proven he’s ready to play at a big club like Real Madrid after producing some wonderful displays at the World Cup. Mbappe starred for France on their way to lifting the trophy in Russia this summer and he’s been superb for Monaco and PSG over the past two years so there is no surprise Madrid are now sniffing around.
- Eden Hazard– The services of Neymar and Kylian Mbappe might be difficult to secure but Eden Hazard might be the right option for Real Madrid. He has been one of the best players in the world after leading Chelsea to a Premier League title in the 2016-17 season and has been one of the leading players in England for several years. Hazard has refused to rule out a move to Madrid but it remains to be seen whether Chelsea will agreed to sell.
