In anticipation of the failure of signing Haaland.. Real Madrid makes the option to return its former striker

Erling Haaland is the priority target to strengthen the center forward, but competition from Manchester City for his services complicates his arrival at the Santiago Bernabeu. In the event that the Borussia Dortmund star reaches the union, the former Real Madrid striker will become one of the strongest options to strengthen Madrid’s attack.

With Vinicius, Benzema, and possibly Mbappe, who will be Real Madrid’s primary attacking triangle next season, the white club is looking for reinforcements to complement this impressive run.

On July 3, 2019, Raul de Tomas, stopped being a Real Madrid player to officially become a Benfica player for €20 million before moving to Espanyol. However, the current Espanyol striker may return to the white club this summer, as he is one of the alternatives that Real Madrid are considering if Haaland does not finally arrive.

Jovic and Mariano are not in Ancelotti’s plans and the club is looking for a destination for them. The sports administration’s intention is that neither of them will be part of the white team next season, which will leave the door open for other strikers. To cover these vacancies, the options of Raúl de Tomas and Borja Mayoral win in full.

The Espanyol striker became the great star of his team and in the winter market he was already on Arsenal’s agenda. Since his arrival at Espanyol, he has played 85 matches and scored 43, averaging one goal every two matches. The contract expires in 2026 and has a termination clause of 70 million, although the process could be around 30 or 40 million. In the meantime, this Saturday he has a chance to shine against his former team in a match that could serve Real Madrid to win the league title.

On the other hand, at Real Madrid, they are very happy with Mayoral’s performance in Getafe, as he arrived on loan in the winter market after breaking his loan with Roma. His high performance could lead to a return to the Bernabeu this summer. This season, he scored six goals and provided a assist in only 664 minutes, that is, he participates in a goal every 95 minutes.
