Real Madrid monitoring Osasuna forward as short-term fix for Xabi Alonso
Real Madrid is reportedly considering a transfer for Osasuna striker Ante Budimir as a tactical reinforcement under incoming manager Xabi Alonso, who seeks to add a traditional number nine to the squad. At 33, Budimir, coming off a career-best season with 24 goals, offers experience, positional discipline, and a cost-effective solution to provide a reliable option off the bench without disrupting team dynamics. This potential move highlights Alonso’s focus on building a balanced team rather than simply accumulating star players.
