With the World Cup underway, the world's best talents are on show to impress potential suitors. Real Madrid, having just been crowned Champions of Europe, are looking to add quality not quantity in this summer's transfer window. Every world-class player imaginable is being linked with Ancelotti's Madrid but there are seven who are on the cusp of becoming an iconic galactico. Galacticos are expensive, world-class footballers. Purchasing such players was a policy introduced during Florentino Perez's first presidency which states that they have to buy at least one per season. Wales' own Gareth Bale is the most recent example from 2013, along with Isco and Illaramendi. With Illaramendi under-performing, Xabi Alonso beginning to age and Khedira rumoured to leave, Madrid will be looking for a midfielder who can bring movement and excitement into the middle of the park. Not only this, but with striker Alvaro Morata being shopped around Europe, Ancelotti will definitely be looking for a formidable forward to bolster his front lines.
