After the second consecutive El Clasico defeat at the Santiago Bernabeu, Florentino Perez has decided that it's time to make some harsh decisions. According to reports in Spain, Real Madrid have decided to offload some of their underperforming and ageing players in the summer.

The list includes Marco Asensio who hasn't really stepped up as much as the club would have liked him to. Perez expects to get close to €120 million for the young Spaniard. Gareth Bale is also expected to be shown the door in the summer.

Three other big names that are set to be axed are Toni Kroos, Karim Benzema and Marcelo. In addition to these Blancos' aces, players who are currently on loan such as Theo Hernandez, James Rodriguez, Oscar Rodriguez, Odegaard, Achraf, Mayoral, Kovacic, Raul de Tomas will all be put up for sale.

The idea is to maintain a young and healthy squad and shed the ageing wood.
