After the unexpected departure of Karim Benzema to Saudi Arabia, Florentino Pérez has begun the search for a new center forward for Real Madrid, a player that to this day he has not yet been able to find. Although it is true that the club managed to sign Joselu, we are only talking about a 'temporary signing', since the Spaniard will not be Merengue's starting No. 9 for the coming months and the great dream of all Real Madrid fans is to have Kylian Mbappé.

To all this, it is very likely that Carlo Ancelotti will stop being the coach of Real Madrid starting next season. His contract with the Casa Blanca expires on June 30, 2024 and it is already more than known that he will not renew his contract. Although he did not confirm his next destination, several European media affirm that 'Carletto' will take the reins of the Brazil National Team with the Copa América 2024 in mind.

In this context, Real Madrid is also looking for a new coach, but everything indicates that Xabi Alonso could be the replacement for Ancelotti, who is having a great season with Bayern Leverkusen. And in the last few hours, the first intentions of the Spanish coach would have been made known, such as the return of Takefusa Kubo. But that's not all, since for Xabi Alonso, Kylian Mbappé would have no place in his team.

The striker that Xabi Alonso wants

According to the Spanish media, Don Diario, Xabi Alonso would have requested the signing of Víctor Boniface as a center forward, one of the most incredible scorers in the entire Bundesliga this season and who is one of the Spanish coach's own favorite players at Bayern Leverkusen. However, Real Madrid will have to fight with Newcastle for his signing, since the English are also interested in the Nigerian.
