How Real Madrid could line up after breaking the bank for Bellingham AND Kane with England stars on transfer wishlist
REAL MADRID are eager to strengthen their squad with two England superstars this summer.
Carlo Ancelotti’s side lost their LaLiga crown to Barcelona this term, and fell in the Champions League semi-finals to Manchester City.
Real Madrid did manage to win the Copa del Rey, but will be aiming to compete for further honours next term by making statement acquisitions.
The Spanish giants are set to complete a £130million deal for Jude Bellingham from Borussia Dortmund next week.
Bellingham, 19, handed out leaving gifts to his Dortmund team-mates this week ahead of the move.
Madrid would also love to prise Harry Kane away from Tottenham, should Karim Benzema leave this summer.
The Frenchman is reportedly on the verge of joining Saudi side Al-Ittihad on a staggering £342million contract.
Kane, 29, has one year remaining on his Spurs deal, although he may be more likely to leave on a free transfer in 12 months than for a fee this summer.
Real Madrid would also have to compete with Manchester United for Kane’s signature, should the England skipper decide to leave his boyhood club.
Ancelotti’s men have also been linked with a surprise deal for Liverpool ace Andy Robertson.

The Scotland captain could cost around £40m, with the Mail claiming that he is high on Madrid’s list.
Should he sign for Los Blancos, Robertson could slot into a back four featuring Eder Militao, David Alaba and Dani Carvajal – with the likes of Antonio Rudiger in reserve.
Thibaut Courtois is arguably the best goalkeeper in the world behind them – while Bellingham would join a star-studded midfield ahead.
Madrid are expected to give veteran midfielder Luka Modric a further 12-month deal – and the Croatian could join Bellingham and Aurelien Tchouameni in a trio.
Ancelotti will also have Fede Valverde, Eduardo Camavinga and Toni Kroos to call upon.
Kane could then provide a focal point for silky wingers Vinicius Jr and Rodrygo to play off up top.
