Madrid need another striker, but their roster right now is good enough to go get one for ~$30M and wait a year for Mbappe and still compete. Assuming that is the long term plan. But if Mbappe isn't seen as the answer and you want a true #9 anyway then yeah drop the cash on Kane. But they are Real Madrid. Can't they just go get Firmino or Havertz or Vlhovic or Larturo or grab Moussa Dembele for free. Anything to just stop gap until you get Mbappe next year and figure it out.

It will be a really interesting situation if they land Mbappe and where/how he plays with Vini on the left.

That's what I would think. Why spend anything on Mbappe when you can get him free? Sign a stop gate like Firmino and wait. Firmino/Rodrygo/Joselu should be decent enough to hold you over. You could still get Kane but then you can't play Vini/Mbappe in the benzema/ronaldo switching lanes role.
 
I don’t even know what Havertz is good at :lol:
Where did he play before striker at Chelsea? That’s not his natural position
