5 things Real Madrid have to do to become unstoppable

#3 Sign a world-class striker

Timo Werner could be a worthy addition to the Real Madrid squad

With Karim Benzema playing more like a False Nine and Cristiano Ronaldo reportedly ready to leave the club, Real Madrid are in desperate need of a world-class striker. Los Galacticos are always used to having the best players in Europe in their team and though they haven't broken the bank in recent transfer windows, they should now.

Tottenham Hotspur's Harry Kane has been constantly linked to Real Madrid but it looks unlikely that a deal with fall through. The Spurs chairman Daniel Levy is one of the most difficult people in football to negotiate with and with Madrid not gaining further ground in their pursuit of the England striker so far, it looks unlikely that the transfer will happen this season.

RB Leipzig's Timo Werner is another top target. Werner has been in great form for his Bundesliga side and is one of the most promising youngsters plying their trade in Europe's big leagues at this time. The 22-year-old scored 22 goals and provided 9 assists across all competitions in the 2017-18 season.

Timo is also Germany's first choice striker at the World Cup. This would be a great time for Real Madrid to sign him and the player is likely to have no doubts if the biggest club in the world come knocking for his signature.
