Yes, that's right, the only problem that is so visible in Real Madrid's body now is that they lack a striker who can be relied on to replace a Benzema who has been sidelined due to injury. It is predicted that Mbappe will be able to give color to Real Madrid's game, but with how difficult it was for them to sign Mbappe, I don't think we will see Mbappe in Real Madrid's uniform in the near future. They must look for quality players for the vacant positions up front, apart from Mbappe.
Don't forget, Benzema just won the Ballon D'Or. even though he is already 35 years old, Don Carlo still entrusts him to be the main starter in his team. if Real Madrid really urgently needs a center forward this January, I'm sure they won't hesitate to bring in newcomers. although currently, Kylian Mbappe has been linked again with Los Blancos. however, there has been no official statement regarding his upcoming January transfer window. after all, I highly doubt it for this season. because after all, Benzema still deserves to be a core player in his squad.
after all, there is something more urgent that Real Madrid needs. if we remember the age of Luca Modric, who has entered 37 years. because of that, Madrid is currently very interested in the midfielder from Benfica. yes, Enzo Fernandez was the target of several clubs including Liverpool.
IMO, I still believe that Benzema will continue to contribute to El Real, at least until this season ends.
