In a recent report, football.london stated that Real Madrid are now targeting Bayern Munich winger Serge Gnabry this summer. It is understood that Los Blancos might face competition from their rival UCL finalists Liverpool and Arsenal in the race to secure his signature.
Gnabry’s Impressive Campaign For Bayern Munich This Season
The 26-year-old has had a solid campaign for the German giants, helping them secure their 10th consecutive League title by scoring 17 goals and creating ten assists in all competitions this season.
He has proven to be one of the finest wingers in the Bundesliga, averaging 1.4 tackles, 2.0 shots, 1.4 key passes, 1.9 dribbles and 0.5 crosses per 90 minutes in the German top flight. Furthermore, he has been impressive with his ball distribution, averaging 82.2% in his pass success rate in the German first division football (stats via whoscored).
What Could He Bring To Real Madrid Boss Carlo Ancelotti’s Starting XI?
Gnabry can use his pace to cut inside from the right flank, excelling at creating space for himself. It allows him to produce some clear cut goal-scoring opportunities. The winger can set up his teammates in front of the goal with a few assists creating meaningful chances in the final third.
At 26, Gnabry has proven to be a deadly attacker and can continue to grow with each season. Furthermore, he is primarily a right-winger but remains versatile enough to play in any position in the attacking third.
It would be wise for Ancelotti to bring him to Santiago Bernabeu as Madrid are actively looking to bolster their attack and Gnabry could conclude their search. His contract expires next summer, so Madrid would need to make an enticing offer should they want Gnabry to feature on the right-wing of Ancelotti’s frontline before the next season commences
