#4 Mauro Icardi
Another one of those players that has been linked with the Madrid outfit. The Inter forward is enjoying his peak years and could still improve as he is only 24. In him, the Blancos will have a striker that already scores at a great rate.
Last season, Icardi scored 26 goals from 41 games only and is already on 18 from 22 this season so far. The Italo-Argentine will only get better with age and could become a genuine goalscoring hub, running parallel to the likes Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang and Robert Lewandowski.
Also, his inclusion will not require any tweaking of the system as he will slot in straight for Karim Benzema in the striker’s role. This will also lead to Madrid not heavily relying on Cristiano Ronaldo for the goalscoring.
Finally, Icardi’s ability to bring in his team-mates will greatly help the aforementioned Portuguese and Gareth Bale, leading to all three reaching their best.
