Real Madrid have been in brilliant form in the last season and have notched up a Champions League victory to show for their efforts. They were up against an in-form Juventus side, fresh from their Italian Serie A title win, and were clinical in their display, beating the Bianconeri by 4 goals to 1.
The triumph was also special because it made them the very first team in the history of the tournament to defend their title successfully. Now the things that Los Blancos will like to do to ensure they are on course to another season of victory in Europe are-
Don’t lose Cristiano Ronaldo-
Recent reports suggest that Real Madrid talismanic forward Cristiano Ronaldo has been under some kind of pressure in a case related to tax evasion, which has seen his future get jeopardised at the Santiago Bernabeu, as the Portuguese skipper is speculated to leave the club and move back to his former side, the Premier League club Manchester United. With French Ligue 1 runner ups Paris Saint-Germain in contention to land him at the Parc De Princes in the next term, the Spanish champions are making their best effort to make him stay back at the Bernabeu. The four times Balon D’Or winner has been arguably the best player in the world and can wreck havoc on his day even at the age of 32, whom the Galacticos would not want to lose.
Bring in a good striker-
Real Madrid has enough firepower in their arsenal but might have to let some of them go in the next summer. Gareth Bale and Alvaro Morata have already been linked with moves to a number of big name clubs like Manchester United and Chelsea, largely due to the fact that they have not been given preference to start regularly in the last season. If they leave, the Galacticos might need to bring in someone like Kylian Mbappe to keep their dominance over their opponents in the attacking third and they are reportedly keeping their tabs on the French starlet to strengthen their side.
Must maintain a good supply of balls from the midfield-
Reportedly, Real Madrid are looking to make a big bid in order to bring in Chelsea playmaker Eden Hazard in the summer to the club, who might be able to maintain delivering deadly passes to keep the front three, namely Ronaldo, Isco and Benzema in the game and also chip in with a few goals should the occasion arise.
