With Karim Benzema’s departure, the Number 9 jersey at Real Madrid remains unoccupied. It won’t be going to Kylian Mbappé or Erling Haaland.
According to the Spanish press, the illustrious Number 9 at Real Madrid will be bestowed upon a young player who has never before played in Europe: Endrick.
The young Brazilian player is set to join in the summer of 2024, shortly after turning 18, and he will shoulder the significant responsibility of following in Benzema’s footsteps.
However, Real Madrid is expected to make a strong effort to acquire either Kylian Mbappé or Erling Haaland. These two players, in such an event, will likely wear the Number 10 jersey since it appears unlikely that Luka Modric will receive an extension.
