Real Madrid could reportedly do away with as many as six players in the January transfer window.
Los Blancos are riding high in La Liga under the tutelage of Carlo Ancelotti and currently hold an eight-point lead at the top of the rankings over second-placed Sevilla.
However, the capital giants have a number of contract issues heading into the summer of 2022, and as a result several players could be given the axe in January.
According to Marca, Gareth Bale and Isco are the first names on the list for the chop, with Ancelotti not planning to use either man on a regular basis for the rest of the season.
The report adds that the club will also listen to offers for Marcelo, Eden Hazard, Mariano Diaz and Luka Jovic, even though the quartet are in Ancelotti's plans.
Luka Modric is also out of contract at the Bernabeu in 2022, although the Croatia international is expected to sign a short-term extension.
