5 replacements for Alvaro Morata at Real Madrid

SSC Napoli v Real Madrid CF - UEFA Champions League Round of 16: Second Leg
Alvaro Morata's time at Real Madrid has come to an end

#3 Timo Werner - RB Leipzig

Germany v England - International Friendly
Timo Werner's star is only about to rise

When Real Madrid sold Alvaro Morata, the club lost a 24-year-old striker who was involved with 26 goals in 43 appearances for the club. If they sign Timo Werner, Real Madrid will get a 21-year-old striker who was involved in 28 goals in 32 appearances for his club. There's only an improvement in efficiency to be made here, all while generating a profit for Florentino Perez' outfit.

If Timo Werner were to move to Real Madrid, the German youngster would cost in the range of €45 million, although given that RB Leipzig are hardly a cash-strapped club, that fee could rise.

Werner would offer Real Madrid an exceptional Plan B - Ronaldo and Benzema are aging, and Gareth Bale remains the only pacy outlet up front. The German would be the perfect striker to play a counter-attacking style with, not to mention that Werner is at an age where he can afford to be patient, and potentially be a long-term replacement for Karim Benzema.
