Juni Calafat storms Inter Milan with the covert signing of Florentino Pérez
Real Madrid must look for an improvement in their team and, above all, they must sign a reference centre-forward. Florentino Pérez needs to be very attentive to all the possible moves that are made during the next summer transfer market, but it is Juni Calafat , the head of the scouting department of Real Madrid, who has the most footballers controlled.
Harry Kane is a priority for Real Madrid
After the departure of Karim Benzema , the centre-forward who has been the leader of Real Madrid in recent years, there is a great void in the goalscoring section. And that’s why Real Madrid must find a new finisher who can make the difference in attack.
In this sense, the white club has been intensifying contacts to sign Harry Kane for weeks . The English striker of Tottenham Hotspur is the absolute priority and the favorite of Florentino Pérez . A born goalscorer who is the great leader of the London club. Therefore, it is understood that he already knows what it is to lead a great European team and that it would not be a big problem for him to continue doing it at Real Madrid.
And from the white club they see that he is the striker with the best chance of succeeding at the Santiago Bernabéu. However, the financial factor and the obligation to pay more than 100 million euros to get him away from Tottenham could be an extra difficulty in this operation. And that’s why Real Madrid are already contemplating and working on a plan B.
Lautaro Martínez is Real Madrid’s alternative
Juni Calafat is in charge of managing this alternative until it becomes a priority. And the target is Inter Milan, the Champions League finalist. If Harry Kane cannot be the striker for Real Madrid , then the number 1 target will be Lautaro Martínez .
The 25-year-old Argentinian striker has been on the list of footballers followed by Juni Calafat for quite some time . From Real Madrid they know that Lautaro Martínez is a regular footballer , who has goals and who has not devalued in recent years. Also, he has always been improving and evolving in his worst records.
Valued at 80 million euros , it would be a more affordable signing than Harry Kane . However, for the moment it is English that becomes the favorite. Harry Kane has scored 32 goals in 49 games and Lautaro Martinez has scored 28 goals in 56 games. With the data in hand, it is also clear what is the priority objective of Real Madrid.
