If Mariano Diaz finds a new club this summer, Real Madrid may be looking to recruit a new center-forward, according to ABC.
Last week, Real Madrid manager Carlo Ancelotti announced that the team will not engage in any summer transfer activity. Antonio Rudiger and Aurelien Tchouameni are the two new players that Los Blancos have already signed.
The Italian claims that with the fresh additions, the transfer window's work is concluded. I can assure you that we won't sign anyone, he said. We are comfortable as is.
However, based on performances during the ongoing transfer window, the situation at the Santiago Bernabeu may alter. The aforementioned source claims that the club might sign a new forward as a result of Diaz's departure.
The 28-year-old hasn't played much for Los Blancos in recent years. Diaz only made 11 club appearances last season and registered one goal across all competitions.
It appears like Diaz won't be staying at Real Madrid. In place of Karim Benzema as a backup for the upcoming season, Ancelotti favours Borja Mayoral, according to ABC.
Despite Luka Jovic's summer loan move to Fiorentina, Diaz's opportunity to play is not assured. A successor for Diaz is planned if he departs this summer because Los Blancos will not want to start the new campaign with one fewer striker. The source did not, however, mention any potential choices.
Mariano Diaz's current contract only has one year left, therefore he might be available.
For preseason, Real Madrid visits the United States.
Real Madrid will embark on a preseason tour of the United States before to the start of the new season. Only players who Ancelotti believes have a future at the club for the upcoming season should be brought in, according to ABC.
Only three preseason games for Los Blancos are scheduled for this summer, all taking place in the USA. On the Soccer Champions Tour, they will play Juventus, Club America, and Barcelona.
On August 10, Madrid will face Eintracht Frankfurt in the UEFA Super Cup to open the 2022–23 campaign.
