Real Madrid are preparing a revolution this summer, hoping to complete multiple signings to reinforce their attack for next season.

Los Blancos have just lost Marco Asensio, Mariano Diaz, Eden Hazard, and Karim Benzema over the course of the last two days, and want to sign multiple forwards to fill the gaping holes in attack.

They are looking to sign up to four forwards, with three players, in particular, making the rounds in transfer news. These are Harry Kane, Kai Havertz, and Joselu.

Kane is the primary objective for the club to reinforce the striker position, while Joselu will largely serve as his backup, taking over the role Mariano Diaz was brought in to fill.

Meanwhile, Havertz is a ‘dream’ for Florentino Perez and Carlo Ancelotti, and now the player is on his way to Real Madrid, as per a report by BILD.

Havertz is on his way out of Chelsea this summer, with the Blues in dire need of raising money through player sales. Their spending last summer has submerged them in hot waters with the FFP, and could raise a ton of complications.

Chelsea spent over €80 million on the German three seasons ago, and while they know they will not be able to recover all of the investment, they still want ‘important’ money to let any of their starting lineup players leave.

As such, the Blues have also ruled out any loan move for Havertz, and will only consider a permanent transfer away from the Stamford Bridge.

Madrid do not see Havertz as a no. 9, though. They view him as a player who can play between the lines.

His numbers also reflect his unproductivity in front of the goal, with the player failing to hit the ten-goal mark in the Premier League across his three seasons with Chelsea so far.

    Whoever is taking the position of Karim… I DON’T think Harry Kane will be able to fill the hiatus just now….. Leaving Ascensio may cost us severely……

Real Madrid are back in action in La Liga tonight after the three-week international break as they take on Villarreal at the Santiago Bernabeu.

Having lost their previous game against Atletico Madrid, Real Madrid will be eager to get back to winning ways, especially with Barcelona on track to secure three more points and extending their lead at the top.

Ahead of kickoff at the Santiago Bernabeu later tonight, manager Jose Mourinho has announced the starting lineup that will take the field against Villarreal.

The big headline is that captain Federico Valverde is fit enough to start in midfield after having successfully recovered from the Grade 3 ankle sprain he had sustained during the derby defeat three weeks ago.

The Uruguayan international partners with Aurelien Tchouameni in the middle of the park, while Jude Bellingham continues as the attacking midfielder for the hosts.

Arda Guler and Vinicius Jr. slot in on the flanks, while Kylian Mbappe, having recovered from the minor injury he sustained during the international break, spearheads the attack.

Trent Alexander-Arnold and Alvaro Carreras get the nod as the two full-backs flanking the centre-back pairing of Ibrahima Konate and Antonio Rudiger. Thibaut Courtois guards the Real Madrid goal.
