Certainly Ancelotti has targeted several strikers who have played so brilliantly in the world cup, apart from those two names, of course there will still be other options. Now is the right time to look for a replacement for benzema, considering that he is no longer young and it will be quite a hassle for Real Madrid if they have to force him to continue playing, this will definitely be a pretty difficult situation. But the loudest rumor is the joining of Cody Gakpo, who currently plays for the Dutch national team and plays for PSV. Even though the struggle for Gakpo is very difficult because so many elite teams in Europe are also hunting for this player, of course it will make Real Madrid even more at the forefront to get him in the January transfer market.
Considering Karim Benzema condition still questionable about can comeback after World Cup or not I think Real Madrid manager need find with new replacement for Benzema. Can't guarantee with Benzema can back early because he has absent many matches with Real Madrid before international break up due injured. I don't find with Real Madrid rumor interested to signing Cody Gakpo have brilliant performance with Netherland at World Cup, how ever Manchester United almost reach agreement deal to get Cody Gakpo.

Real Madrid can monitoring new center forward actually World Cup become the best place looking for young talented player and find with potential center forward have almost ended contract with their previous team.

Snip.
I have noticed some difference in Dembele's game this in the world cup, his passing stats and contributions show massive improvement and I must commend his efforts as well as the team's efforts in the world cup. I believe that his ability to create chances from time to time is been considered more in selecting him for competitions like this and it is actually paying off in the world cup.
Dembele has answered all of his doubts well, his contribution to France in the world cup being a godsend for Barcelona. I also see that several Barcelona players have improved a lot during their time with their country in the world cup, Gavi, Pedri, Kounde and Ferran Torres have all made good contributions to their country. The elimination of Spain is also a blessing for Barcelona, its flagship players can return to training with other players who have not competed in the world cup. Xavi can do regular training to make his squad more compact to face the competition after the start of the League.

Dembele has made a big improvement since his new contract with Barcelona. He has always been criticized due to being very selfish. This was one of the reasons he couldn't show his talent very well in his previous contract times. But now he is more helpful for his teammates. His statistics in the La Liga can be shown as a proof for this actually - 4 goals and 5 assists. On the other hand I must admit that he is still having some selfish matches sometimes. It is like in his nature to try to do all the work from creating a goal opportunity to ending it.

But as long as he keeps this selfish behavior as low as possible he wouldn't have much problem with Xavi. Because Xavi is caring about the team effort very much. He doesn't want to see only one man trying to carry the match.

There is much more pressure on Barcelona than on Real Madrid. If Madrid don't become champions this year, no one will be upset about it. Madrid has achieved many great successes nationally and internationally in recent years, which have built up a substantial buffer for a few years. And are also still active in the CL. Barcelona should actually become champion, or at least win the cup. But the national championship is more highly regarded than the Copa del rey. At the moment it is equal between Barcelona and Madrid, but if 1 team falls out of shape, the backlog can quickly add up.
Exactly.The pressure is much on Barcelona than Real Madrid,that is why Xavi is trying everything possible to just make Barcelona a team that is is capable of winning their league and also winning the champions league,but I doubt if Barca has that squad depth that can win the champions now.They were knocked out from the champions league and they are back in the Europa league to compete for that particular tittle.
Where as,Madrid is still doing well,and even if they should loose matches,it won't really be a thing to worry about because of what they have achieved in the past years.

I do not expect Real Madrid to make any big changes in this transfer market. I think they are preparing to wait until the next transfer window. And I honestly feel that in the next transfer window we can expect Real Madrid to make some really big moves. They are hoping to bring in a really capable striker. I think we all know that. And they are waiting for the right opportunity and also for the right choice. However, I wonder if the striker that they have available on the market right now might be a better option than what they will be able to get in the next transfer window.
This is the same statement Ancelloti was making in previous transfer window and I'm shocked to be reading such statements again this season. Although the team a some how balanced on most positions but not balanced all round they still need to strengthen some positions like their attacking position,Benzema  is prone to injuries now and need a suitable replacement or better say substitute player in times like this.
But I think it won't be very good if they keep delaying.
Benzema's condition has not been very good so far despite his good productivity but we know that his body is not very good. On the other hand, we also know that in Madrid right now, even though there are still a lot of them, players who do have great potential, especially for young players, but their instinct for scoring goals is a little lacking and when Benzema is not there, Madrid has a little trouble.
I think delaying to find out clearly is a little forced with the current conditions even though they are still confident but it wouldn't hurt to bring in new player options now.

Madrid definitely need a new striker ASAP but the big problem is that no one will accept to stay in tge bench because i dont think the new striker will take benzema place since the player still doing very well, this will make real Madrid mission to bring a New striker a bit complicated but i think the administration will find a good solution as it always did

Why do you believe the management of Madrid will not find a suitable replacement for Benzema? Have Madrid's management leaked it to the public at this point so you presume they can't get a replacement for Benzema any time soon?

Everyone admits that Benzema is a great player and fits perfectly with Real Madrid, and it's almost the same with Ronaldo in the past. But one thing that must be remembered is that the age of players who increase every year cannot be stopped or stopped and injuries that come for players who are often used are very natural and for that reason Real Madrid's management must be able to find a replacement for Benzema.
Age may only apply to some people because so far, if you look at Ronaldo's age, who is getting older, he still has very good performance, in contrast to Benema, who has often been injured and his performance has decreased. It is difficult to find players like Benzema, but if you want to look for young players with a very high performance, maybe Real Madird has already kept a list of names that will be purchased during the transfer market later.

If you want to perform well in football, you must have good fitness. Ronaldo is 37 years old, yet he is able to play consistently well due to his excellent fitness. On the other hand, Neymar is only 30 years old. Even then his fitness is not good. He is on the bench most of the year. Benzema's fitness is not bad, but injuries take a long time to recover from.

Real Madrid has long depended on Benzema's performances. Perhaps they are interested in signing a young striker. I think Madrid management won't waste money buying a striker if they can't find young players they like.

A club like Real Madrid is very easy to bring in talented players and almost every player is interested in playing with Real Madrid. When other clubs are having trouble getting the Champions League trophy, Real Madrid can fulfill the players' dream of lifting the UCL trophy. Finding a suitable replacement for Benzema is not an easy job for Real Madrid (not that Real Madrid cannot get players with good talent), players who are brought in must have criteria that match the club's goals.
Players who have an instinct to score goals like Mbappe and Haaland really need Real Madrid, but Real Madrid already has a target when the transfer market opens.
Yes of course it's easy, many players are interested in Real Madrid but maybe Real Madrid is not interested in them. So far Real Madrid have only been interested in Mbappe, but they failed to reach an agreement at the end of last season as Mbappe extended his contract with PSG. Real Madrid may still be able to hijack him, but I'm not sure if they are ready to pay a heavy price for Mbappe.

Apart from Mbappe, I don't know who Real Madrid are interested in, but they have time to monitor one of them at the World Cup. Some players from Portugal, Brazil or other teams seem good for Real Madrid to sign in the next transfer window, but I'm sure Real Madrid won't sign more foreign players as strikers because they also need to consider Spanish players.

Barcelona changed their coach and some players due to pressure and poor performance, which is why Xavi was given a chance and money to sign sime players. But even so, things haven't gone as planned as they were eliminated from the Champions League group stage, which is very bad for a team like Barcelona. If they really want to win the title this year, I hope they can add some strength to the team by adding more players. If not, Real Madrid will still win the trophy.

For the La Liga title our strongly believed Barcelona can get it, if we look at the statistics they are quite capable, but indeed after the world cup is over, is a possibility that the performance of Barcelona squad will decrease. One of the reasons is fatigue, but it doesn't take long for squad will adapt. I personally believe Barcelona will get the title, what will happen if they don't get the title of La Liga?
It would be too hasty to say Barcelona will be La Liga champions now. Because they are still not in a comfortable place to win the title. 2 points is a very small distance, I don't even think of it as a gap with Real Madrid who are 2 points below them. They are just better than last season. Barcelona has the opportunity to become champions this season, but it requires a difficult struggle with hard work, of course.
I'm not sure if Barcelona can win the league this season,  Barcelona is so fragile in performance that they can end up  not maintaining the first position.  Barcelona performance is fragile that is why they couldn't qualify for in the Champions league.
In fact, they still have a chance and are still very big, especially with the current conditions, which are indeed at the top, but on the other hand, ensuring today's champion with so much to come in the rest of the next match is too hasty.
They are not Barcelona who are in the golden era who can always convince even new games arrive at the halfway point of the season.
Currently Madrid's condition is also in good condition and to be honest I like Madrid's performance even though there are still some mistakes that need to be corrected today.

Yes, more pressure will be felt by Barcelona this season. Xavi is the person most to blame if Barcelona fail to win the championship. Not without reason, Xavi has brought in a lot of new players which of course is the big hope of the Catalan public to see their favorite team win the La Liga title again from Real Madrid.

At the moment Barcelona is able to lead the standings with a two-point advantage over their eternal rival, but I'm not so sure that the Blaugrana will be able to maintain their advantage, because it must be admitted that Madrid are still very strong this season even though they are still behind. In the second half of the season, Madrid will again be able to win the top of the standings and of course make Barcelona languish again.

Let's see what Madrid will do in January. Are they going to buy new players or not. At least the world cup gives Anceloti many options to replace Benzema. So not with Mbappe or Haland Madrid will still choose a striker even though their characters are different. Anceloti must be able to take advantage of everything that is available, don't rely on those who have no intention of joining Madrid. Especially after the World Cup, of course Madrid has many views of other talented strikers.

Certainly Ancelotti has targeted several strikers who have played so brilliantly in the world cup, apart from those two names, of course there will still be other options. Now is the right time to look for a replacement for benzema, considering that he is no longer young and it will be quite a hassle for Real Madrid if they have to force him to continue playing, this will definitely be a pretty difficult situation. But the loudest rumor is the joining of Cody Gakpo, who currently plays for the Dutch national team and plays for PSV. Even though the struggle for Gakpo is very difficult because so many elite teams in Europe are also hunting for this player, of course it will make Real Madrid even more at the forefront to get him in the January transfer market.

Real Madrid's targets were Mbappe and Haaland. But Madrid failed to bring these two young players to the team. I would say now Madrid should focus more on Vinicius Junior and Rodrygo. Also, Benzema's fitness is not good enough. Even so, I think he will be in Madrid for several more seasons. At the moment, I don't think Madrid management will find a suitable replacement for Benzema.

Of course there are some names that deserve Real Madrid's attention during the World Cup, maybe Madrid haven't shown their interest openly but I'm sure they will. The time has come for Real Madrid to look for a replacement for Benzema and Ancelotti himself may do so in the next transfer window. But I don't see Real Madrid in much of a hurry to replace Benzema after they failed to find Mbappe, but it's reasonable to expect them to do so in January given that Benzema has been injured quite a lot recently.

I don't think Real Madrid won't be able to replace Benzema with their status as a big club. Especially if we look at the past, Real Madrid never lacked players in the position currently occupied by Benzema. They will definitely find a suitable player to replace Benzema, sooner or later. Right now they are burning a lot are hunting for a lot of players in that position. Especially at this World Cup there will be a new name that will appear to attract their interest and offer to join the El Real squad.
Indeed it will definitely take time to reach the game that is now being done by Benzema. But I'm sure they will quickly find the ideal player to replace Benzema.

Benzema's achievements at Real Madrid are unique. Benzema has played the same role for Real Madrid as Cristiano Ronaldo played for Real Madrid. But if Real Madrid let go of Benzema, they will have to add a better player to their team to make up for his lack.
