For several months now, Real Madrid has been looking for a center forward to fill the gap left available by Karim Benzema with his departure to Saudi Arabia. Very important names such as Kylian Mbappé or Erling Haaland have been present in the halls of the Santiago Bernabéu, but the truth is that none of these rumors have become reality. However, another player who appeared in orbit was Víctor Osimhen.

The Nigerian striker was one of Carlo Ancelotti's weaknesses for next summer and the truth is that he had a litmus test today after facing Merengue in the Champions League. Osimhen entered the second half in place of Giovanni Simeone but the truth is that the Napoli attacker failed and could not stand out in the eyes of the entire Spanish public. For this reason, Real Madrid would finally give up on his signing.

Everything seems to indicate that Osimhen will end up playing in the Premier League, since Chelsea is willing to pay close to 150 million euros for his services according to the information provided by Sport. However, Florentino Pérez would have his sights set on another striker who belongs to the Premier League and who today has also shone in the Champions League with his team: we are talking about Arsenal's jewel, Bukayo Saka.

Real Madrid, in search of Bukayo Saka

According to information from the Crónica Global portal, Real Madrid would have set its eyes on Bukayo Saka, a forward who has been Arsenal's sensation in England and who could provide the goals that Ancelotti's team needs in attack. However, with a current contract at the English club until June 2027, Merengue would have to spend more than 120 million euros to complete his signing according to what Transfermarkt establishes. Today he excelled with a goal and an assist against Lens in the 6-0 win.
