Several players could be on the move with Zidane starting to give hints as to who might be considered expendable with the likes of Eden Hazard linked with a move to the club.

The Italian, who managed the club on two seperate occasions, spoke about the decision made to bring Zinedine Zidane back. "It surprised me that Zidane returned, but I think that he has a lot more power now than before," he said recently at the World Soccer Congress.

Real Madrid are planning a massive overhaul this summer. Zinedine Zidane said he is looking at an evolution rather than a revolution but several key players in recent seasons could be on the move the futures of Bale, Isco, Marcelo and Kroos in doubt when the window opens at the end of June.
