Why didn Real Madrid sign Victor Osimhen last summer? Radio Serie A asked Carlo Ancelotti.
Because I think the club thought that Benzema departure could be remedied by the signing of Bellingham Ancelotti replied.
Real Madrid were strongly linked to Osimhen last season following the transfer of Karim Benzema to Saudi. But the club rejected the urge to sign a striker with Jude Bellingham already on his way and Kylian Mbappe expected to arrive for free in a year.
Everything worked out in the end for Madrid. Bellingham scored 23 goals and was named La Liga Player of the Season while Real Madrid won the Champions League.
