The main objective of Ancelotti after Karim Benzema's departure from Real Madrid

Karim Benzema bids farewell to Real Madrid, and the club's executives and coaches already have a replacement in mind, none other than Harry Kane. The final decision of the Frenchman did not come as a surprise to the Madrid club, as they had been working on finding a new center-forward to fill the position of last season's captain.

The arrival of Joselu, which has been discussed, is unrelated to Benzema's departure. The current Espanyol forward is coming in as a replacement for Mariano and will serve as a complement to the chosen number nine. While he will have minutes and opportunities, his responsibility will not be that of a starter. His role will be to fight and seize the opportunities that come his way.

The name of Harry Kane has been discussed in several meetings held in Valdebebas in recent days. Both Carlo Ancelotti and the sporting management consider him their top choice. They see the Englishman as an immediate performer and someone who can have three or four seasons at the elite level of football.

Real Madrid has already initiated initial contacts with both the player and the London club. They know that Kane is interested in embarking on a LaLiga experience with the white team. Reports suggesting that Kane wants to continue in the Premier League do not reflect reality, as the player is particularly motivated by the opportunity to wear the white shirt of Madrid.

The other option

Another candidate that has been mentioned in Valdebebas is Kai Havertz, a versatile player who can play as a forward, although it may not be his usual position. Accustomed to moving between the lines, he would be the perfect complement to a number nine in the team's scheme.
