Real Madrid
With Xabi Alonso set to take charge of the Los Blancos next term, there will be a slate of changes to this Real Madrid squad, which failed to win La Liga, the Champions League, the Copa Del Rey, and the Spanish Super Cup, in a disappointing season. Long serving player, Luka Modric is also confirmed to be going, alongside Spanish attacker Lucas Vazquez. Despite not winning any silverware this term, Real Madrid ran Barcelona close. In the Copa del Rey final, Real Madrid lost 3-2 in extra time, with the Catalans needing an 84-minute equalizer to take the game to extra time. Los Blancos have won their last two games, beating Mallorca and Sevilla respectively. Against Mallorca, they needed a late goal from Jacobo Ramon to win after Mallorca went ahead in the 11th minute. Jude Bellinghana is suspended for this game after picking up a yellow against Sevilla, but Kylian Mbappe is available. The Frenchman is enjoying a sensational debut season in the Spanish capital, where he has scored 40 goals.
