Former AC Milan striker Daniele Massaro believes Inter Milan captain Mauro Icardi will join Real Madrid.
Icardi moved to Italy from Barcelona's academy.
"I can tell you that, next year, Icardi will be at Real Madrid in [Karim] Benzema's place," Massaro told Premium Sport.
Icardi's record of 13 goals in this season's Serie A has him second on the scoring charts and far clear of Benzema, who has mustered only a single strike for Los Blancos in all competitions.
With a contract until 2021, Icardi could command a transfer fee upwards of 100 million euros.
