Real Madrid need to bring reinforcements in the near future. Karim Benzema may be the reigning Ballon d'Or but his form and fitness have been erratic this season at the age of 35. But the club don't have any real back-ups for the striker. Neither Mariano Diaz nor Alvaro are ready to shoulder the responsibility at this stage.
On the wing, on the other hand, Vinicius Junior is the only one in consistent form. Federico Valverde started the campaign brilliant but lackluster. Rodrygo is yet to join. Marco Asensio is an option on the bench. And Eden Hazard's nightmare continues.
So Real Madrid may need to strengthen their ranks this summer. And it looks like they've got their eyes on some big names.
As reported by Defensa Central (via The Hard Tackle), Real Madrid are considering several strikers, including Mohamed Salah, Harry Kane and Victor Osimhen.
Real Madrid considers recruiting 3 superstars
Several questions have been raised recently about Salah's future at Liverpool as it looks like a cycle is coming to an end at Anfield. Sadio Mane has left to join Bayern Munich while Roberto Firmino is leaving this summer. Could it be the turn of the next Egyptian? Harry Kane has been one of the best strikers on the planet over the years. But he did not win any silverware during his time at Tottenham Hotspur. The England international has been tipped several times to move in the past and with his contract expiring in the summer of 2024, a move could soon be made.
Signing Victor Osimhen will be the most difficult of the three. He is only 24 years old and has been playing exceptionally well this season as Napoli win Serie A and are among the contenders to win the Champions League.

Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta has received a huge boost in the fitness of a key player.
The Spanish coach is probably concerned about the readiness of key midfielder Thomas Partey.
However, it is reported that despite missing a match against Ghana in the Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers, Partey is fit enough to play against Leeds United on Saturday.
Arsenal's senior fitness guru, Simon Murphy, has accompanied Partey to his international duty.
According to Football.london, the club believe they can either start or sit on the bench in the match against Leeds. The one still in doubt is defender William Saliba, who did not play during the international break.
