Benzema’s replacement: Real Madrid consider Spanish attacker as option
Real Madrid are reportedly looking at their loanee Juanmi Latasa as one of the options as they hunt for striker Karim Benzema’s replacement.
Benzema, who has a €200 million-per-season offer on his table from an unnamed Saudi Arabian club, is yet to sign a new deal at Real Madrid and is set to become a free agent in the summer.
According to MARCA, Latasa is set to get a chance at Real Madrid next season despite a sub-par loan spell at Getafe.
The Spanish attacker joined Getafe for the season but has scored just once in 17 La Liga matches.
Real Madrid reckon that they can get Latasa, 22, to play a key role at the Santiago Bernabeu next season, even if he is to come off the bench.
