Bale only joined Real from Tottenham Hotspur last summer, becoming the most expensive player of all time, and although he had a good first season at the Bernabeu, he no longer seems to fit into Ancelotti’s tactical setup.

Although the 25-year-old may not be the ideal player for the Spanish giants at the moment, there’s no question that a player of his quality will need replacing, and it seems as though president F;orentino Perez already has his eye on some big names to come in in that position, with these three world class stars emerging as targets for the club according to various recent reports:

3) Eden Hazard (Chelsea)

According to recent claims from the Daily Express, Chelsea star Eden Hazard could be Real Madrid’s top target to replace Bale if he does leave for Old Trafford. The Belgian international is no doubt a world class player, but the Blues are unlikely to let him to without a fight after his fine performances since moving to Stamford Bridge.

2) Marco Reus (Borussia Dortmund)

Another big name on Real’s shortlist could be Borussia Dortmund forward Marco Reus. According to Fichajes.net, the German international may already have an agreement in place to move to the Bernabeu next season, in a bargain deal for the Spanish giants, who will have beaten a host of top clubs to his signature if they do complete this signing.

1) Raheem Sterling (Liverpool)

Finally, the Daily Star claims that Liverpool wonderkid Raheem Sterling could be the player Real have in mind to come in and improve their attacking midfield options, though the likes of Chelsea are also interested in the England international as he stalls on signing a new contract at Anfield.
