After a tough start this season, Real Madrid are currently seventh on the LaLiga table, four points behind the leaders, Barcelona. Most of their struggles are down to their attack, and they have scored just 13 goals in the opening nine LaLiga games.

The departure of Cristiano Ronaldo was a big blow for Los Blancos, and the inability to replace their departing superstar made things even worse. Karim Benzema has failed to do anything meaningful, and injuries to Gareth Bale and Isco came as another disadvantage.

However, with the January transfer window just a few months away, Real Madrid could use their money power to lure top attacking talents to the Bernabeu.

Right on this note, here is the list of four wingers who could help Real Madrid end their goal-scoring crises.


#1 Mohamed Salah

The Egyptian is one of the best players in the world right now, and is breaking record after record since moving to Liverpool in the summer transfer window of 2017.

Mohamed Salah set a record of scoring the most number of goals (32 goals) in a 38 game Premier League season in 2017-18. He helped Liverpool reach the Champions League finals last campaign, after many years, and was voted the second best forward of the tournament.

The King of Egypt won the African Player of the Season 2017 accolade, and was also Liverpool's Player of the Season the same year. He holds a number of Liverpool individual awards, such as being the fastest Liverpool player to score 40 goals, most goals scored in a debut season by a player, and many more.

However, he is not at his mesmerising best this season, but there is no doubt about his potential, and he will be a great signing for Los Blancos if they manage to lure him to the Bernabeu from Anfield.

#2 Eden Hazard

The Belgium international is in scintillating form this season, and is currently leading the race for the Premier League Golden Boot with 7 goals.

The 27-year-old joined Chelsea from Lille in the summer transfer window of 2012, and has played 217 Premier League games for the London based club, scoring 76 times. He has won the Chelsea Player of the Year award 3 times, and was also the PFA Young Player of the Season in 2013-14.

Hazard has won 2 Premier League titles with the London club, and also helped his team win the Europa League during the 2012-13 season. He was Belgium's star performer at the FIFA World Cup 2018, and provided the most number of assists (3) during the tournament.

Eden Hazard has revealed his desire to join Real Madrid in the past, and could finally move to the Bernabeu this winter, or in the summer.

#3 Florian Thauvin

After failing to impress during his time at St. James' Park, the French international revived his career with his former club, Marseille.

Thauvin was one of the best players in Ligue 1 last season, and scored 22 goals, along with 12 assists. He continued his brilliant form this year as well, and has already bagged 7 goals and 3 assists in just 9 Ligue 1 games.

Florian Thauvin is a superb dribbler, and is composed in front of goal. He possesses great pace, and loves to cut inside into good shooting positions.

His brilliant performances also caught the attention of France's national team manager, Didier Deschamps, and he was a part of France's FIFA World Cup 2018 winning squad.

The 25-year-old would be a great signing for Real Madrid, and could end Real Madrid's goal-scoring crises.

The Mexican international, Hirving Lozano, had a superb 2018 FIFA World Cup, and was certainly one of the best finds of the tournament. He registered 1 goal and 1 assist at international football's biggest stage, and helped his team reach the round-of-16 of the tournament.

Known for his speed, technique, and finishing ability, Lozano joined PSV Eindhoven in 2017, and quickly became a fan favorite with his impressive performances. He played a vital role in PSV's title-winning 2017-18 season, and contributed 17 goals along with 11 assists.

The former CF Pachuca player started strong this season as well, and has already registered 8 goals and 3 assists in the opening 9 Eredivisie games.

The 23-year-old was linked with Real Madrid during last summer's transfer window, and Los Blancos could turn their attention towards him again if they continue to struggle in front of goal.
