Real Madrid after the problems it is having for the forward with Jovic and Mariano, is already testing other options. To this we must add that Benzema does not have much time left at the good level. Zidane and Florentino are concerned about the goal, and for this they are investigating forwards in the world who have this ability as a main factor.
As we have learned in Central defense exclusively from sources very close to the white set, Edouard has a contract until 2022 with Celtic, they have tried to renew him but they have not succeeded and they begin to assume his departure and, with it, to lower the price signed by the player.
Right now, That price would be between 20 and 25 million, a figure lower than the 50-60 they were asking for last summer. And it is that within a year he will be in a position to negotiate with any club if he has not left Scotland before, something that is his wish.
He is a PSG youth squad and Zidane already had references from him since his time in the Parisian team, hence now, depending on what may happen with Mariano and Jovic, have the option of bringing him at a very reasonable price to be a substitute for Benzema in case the economic crisis does not allow access to the Haalands or Mbappé in 2021.
The data speaks for itself. Edouard has played a total of 23 games, 11 goals and four assists this season. These are figures that enchant Real Madrid, which are still good evidence for Florentino to bet on the signing of the French star.
