With Eden Hazard, Karim Benzema, and Marco Asensio departing Real Madrid at the end of the season, the numbers of 7, 9, and 11 will become available soon.
Who will take them next season?
Let us have a look at the possibilities.
No.7
The shirt has a lengthy history in Madrid, having been worn by legends such as Raul and Cristiano Ronaldo. Following the Portuguese's departure, it has been worn by Mariano and Eden Hazard, but they were not on the same level.
Vini Jr may obviously take it, but he has already reportedly refused the club's proposal to wear it.
Rodrygo or Jude Bellingham might also pull off the shirt. Another alternative is to keep the famous number vacant until a Galactico (such as Kylian Mbappe) arrives.
No.9
Rodrygo should get the nine. Nevertheless, if a big-name striker like Harry Kane or Victor Osimhen arrives, he will have to wait.
No.11
Vinicius Junior, as previously stated, has set his sights on the jersey. Nonetheless, Rodrygo, Bellingham, or Kai Havertz (if he signs with Los Blancos) wearing the number 11 is not out of the question.
