2.  Mason Greenwood could provide crucial goals off the bench

Mason Greenwood is one of those players who found his scoring boots towards the closing ambers of the season. He surprised the pundits and fans with few sensational strikes deep into this year’s edition of the Europa League. Although he hasn’t been a regular for the Red Devils, he still could register 7 goals and 2 assists, per WhoScored. And, that is a record better than many Real Madrid players playing a similar role as him.

Greenwood could be someone targeted as a rotational player to Martin Odegaard. He can play a similar attacking role to Martin Odegaard who by the looks of it would stay at the Bernabeu to play under Carlo Ancelotti. Don Carlo loves playing a conventional 4-4-2 shape which means he is more likely to use four of his midfielders at the same time. With players like Asensio and Isco on the probable outgoing list, Mason Greenwood could be a player to keep an eye on.

The major reason for letting Varane go is to accumulate funds for an attacking investment, Kylian Mbappe undoubtedly tops the list of priorities. But, a swap deal could mean a substantial decrease in the amount of money that would enter Real’s account.  Greenwood can get us those 10 goals off the bench or as a starter and therefore, he should be kept in the list of options.
