Karim Benzema, Luka Modric and Toni Kroos are among the players out of contract at Real Madrid next summer…

Real Madrid are the most successful team in European football history, lifting the Champions League and its predecessor tournament the European Cup a combined 14 times.

From Alfredo Di Stefano through Zinedine Zidane and Ronaldo Nazario to Cristiano Ronaldo, some of the greatest players of all time have graced the Santiago Bernabeu.

Los Blancos were crowned Spanish and European champions once again last season, but they didn't rest on their laurels in the transfer market, spending €100 million on Monaco midfielder Aurelien Tchouameni.

He is seen as the long-term replacement for Casemiro, who left in an €80m deal for Manchester United. Casemiro won three consecutive Champions Leagues with Modric and Kroos alongside him, and they are both out of contract at the end of the season.

The same goes for Benzema, who has already seen two thirds of the feared 'BBC' strike force - Gareth Bale and Cristiano - leave the club in recent seasons.

Real normally buy and sell players on their own terms, but they are likely to try and tie Benzema, Kroos and perhaps the 37-year-old Modric down to one-year extensions during the course of this season.

Others, such as Marco Asensio, will be allowed to leave, although los Blancos would clearly prefer to receive a transfer fee for the talented but out of favour winger.

Some players, like Brahim Diaz at AC Milan, are currently out on loan but still have contracts in the Spanish capital with an end date.
