Madrid's Ambitious Project Next Year, Hazard-Haaland-Mbappe Trident Of Death

JAKARTA - Real Madrid will wait until 2021 to hit a spectacular double. They are ready to bring PSG star Kylian Mbappe and Borussia Dortmund goal machine Erling Haaland to accompany Eden Hazard up front.

Los Blancos have been linked with the two players this season. However, due to the financial impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, money transfers are likely to be lessened this summer.

According to the front page of the Monday, May 18 edition of Diario AS, Zinedine Zidane's club are delighted to await their main target, as part of a long-term strategy at the club.

Zidane is reportedly interested in pairing Mbappe and Haaland with Belgium international Eden Hazard. Yes, French striker Karim Benzema is approaching the end of his time at Madrid.

Mbappe is still under contract at PSG until 2022, but he is unlikely to extend his stay in the French capital. It opens the door to leaving with a tag of 100 million euros by 2021.

However, hijacking Haaland from coach Lucien Favre's grasp could be a more difficult task. The Norwegian teenager only joined the Bundesliga giants in the January transfer window.

Since the Bundesliga rolled back on Saturday, Haaland immediately stepped on the gas by scoring against Schalke 04 in the 4-0 win at Rivierderby.

The Norway international brought home a Thorgan Hazard (Eden Hazard's younger brother) cross in the 29th minute to score the first goal since Germany's top flight was suspended in March.

It was his 13th goal in 12 appearances in all competitions since joining Dortmund in January. Making him the second Bundesliga player to achieve the feat after Klaus Matischak for Schalke in 1963-64.

Haaland's Bundesliga record now stands at 10 goals in nine games. Only Gert Dorfel and Paco Alcacer have scored that many goals in fewer games (both eight).

Can Los Blancos bring Haaland to the Santiago Bernabeu and pair him with Hazard and Mbappe? We are waiting for further news.
