Real Madrid is said to be on the market to sign a new striker this summer, despite the fact that he had an All-Star attack.
The 31 La Liga goals from Kylian Mbappe sealed the Golden Boot for the French International as part of a fantastic first season in Madrid.
In addition to Vinicius Junior, Rodrygo and Jude Bellingham, the Real Madrid attack, remains one of Europe's most powerful.
Xabi Alonso is said to be more on defense with Dean Huijsen and Trent Alexander-Arnold who are already coming next to a deal for Argentinian Wonderkid Franco Mastantuono by River Plate.
However, if the club is able to close a reduced price for an experienced striker, Alonso can be tempted – and that can bring them back to Osasuna star Ante Budimir.
Real Madrid reportedly offered an annual salary of € 3 million to the international Budimir of Croatia, which also attracts Real Betis, Real Sociedad, AS Roma and Juventus, based on the release clause of € 8 million of the 33-year-old in Pamplona.
That figure is the same price that Los Rojillo paid for him from Mallorca in 2021, and if Real Madrid formalizes their interest, Osasuna is open to negotiating an exit.
However, the last of Mundo Deportivo indicates that no offers have landed in Osasuna, with his current side determined to keep the 33-year-old.
Last season, Budimir became the top scorer of Osasuna in the history of La Liga, in the total number of net 24 goals in 42 games in all competitions, because only Robert Lewandowski and Mbappe defeated 21 in League Action.
The veteran striker is not only in a hot streak-so he scored 17 top goals in 2023/24-Die was only improved by four players in that campaign.
His air floor and experience as a central attacker would offer something really different from the forward line of Real Madrid if Alonso makes a movement after the FIFA Club World Cup.
