Real Madrid have a good amount of attackers on the books that are being developed, as is the case with Vincicius or Rodrygo, but what they are missing is immediate performance, continuity, and undisputable starters.
The foundation stone was laid with the desired signing of Hazard, as the club wanted the whole attack to revolve around the Belgian who has recognised that his season has left a lot to be desired. There's no turning back now and Hazard is thinking about next season being the turning point.
The important thing now is to recover well from the injury and Zidane isn't going to take any risks. The break caused by the coronavirus will make him get more game time than what was expected and this will favour him, he even surprised with his physical state on the return to training.
But Madrid are dreaming about more names for next year and those are Mbappé and Haaland, as the newspaper 'AS' indicates. The PSG players' contract ends in 2022 and he doesn't seem to be too convinced about renewing, so it will just be like with Hazard i.e. PSG will be forced to sell him in 2021 if they want to get a decent amount for him.
However, Leonardo wouldn't mind seeing Mbappé leave for free as long as he does it in 2022, some words that provoked a bad feeling in the players' circle. Playing under Zidane is something that seduces Kylian, who will want to set himself new challenges in his career.
On the other hand, there is Haaland. Borussia Dortmund's big starlet made headlines again in the return of the Bundesliga, and Madrid will be following him very close until they can launch an attack. It won't be this summer because of the crisis, but in 2021 they already know the price.
The striker will have a release clause of 75 million euros and many authorised voices see him playing in white, therefore he will be the third component of the new and dreamlike 'mhh'. Madrid would go on to have an average age of 24.3 years old and would mix the experience of Hazard with the insatiable hunger of Mbappé and Haaland, two-goal predators.
The negotiations will not be easy, although it seems that the path is flatter than it seems because of the intentions of the two footballers to play one day for Madrid. The front three is possible in 2021 and they will work to make it happen.
