After Real Madrid’s thrilling 3-2 victory over Milan in their preseason friendly, manager Carlo Ancelotti openly shared his strategic vision for the upcoming season. With a new diamond formation in focus, Ancelotti outlined his plans for star signing Jude Bellingham in various scenarios.

Speaking about the virtues of Real Madrid’s new formation, Ancelotti explained that Bellingham would excel as the number ten in this setup, benefiting from his proximity to the opponent’s area. However, the Italian coach also highlighted Bellingham’s versatility, stating that if they opt for a 4-3-3 formation, the young midfielder would be deployed as the right-sided central midfielder (interior).

The question of who will be Real Madrid’s primary striker looms large, especially if they do not secure further reinforcements. Ancelotti expressed confidence in Rodrygo’s ability to fill the role in a 4-3-3 formation. Alongside Rodrygo, options like Valverde and Guler provide additional depth on the wings. Alternatively, Ancelotti envisions the possibility of playing with a midfielder and a striker, with Bellingham and Rodrygo forming the preferred pairing in such a scenario.

The early reports from Real Madrid’s preseason have been positive, with Bellingham and Arda Guler impressing onlookers. The team boasts an abundance of talent on the pitch, including exceptional young players who have garnered Ancelotti’s confidence during training sessions.

However, amidst the excitement, Real Madrid faces the challenging task of transitioning away from one of their greatest strikers without a clear natural replacement. The uncertainty surrounding the future of Kylian Mbappe further complicates their striker situation.

As the season approaches, all eyes will be on Ancelotti’s strategic choices and how the talented squad performs under the new formations, while the search for a suitable long-term striker solution remains a top priority for the Spanish giants.
