Gareth Bale set to lead Real Madrid exodus as seven players including Arsenal transfer target Jovic are put up for sale
REAL MADRID have put SEVEN players on the transfer list including Gareth Bale and Arsenal target Luka Jovic, according to reports.
The Gunners are said to be plotting a deal for Jovic, 24, from the Spanish league leaders.
And earlier this season, boss Carlo Ancelotti confirmed that Bale, 32, will leave the club when his contract ends this summer.
The former Spurs man has barely kicked a ball for Los Blancos so far this season.
But he continues to play for Wales – scoring twice in a thrilling victory over Austria during the international break.
A Spanish sports outlet mocked him up as an insect sucking blood from the club badge, branding him a parasite.

The Gunners are in need of a forward after terminating Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang's contract in the January transfer window.
Boss Mikel Arteta may also have to replace Alexandre Lacazette and Eddie Nketiah, with both attackers out of contract in the summer.
And Jovic “is packing his bags” already ahead of a summer exit.
The ace already seems resigned to the fact that he will be leaving after he seemingly took a swipe at his current team.
Jovic liked an Instagram post which showed a photo of him, Gareth Bale and Eden Hazard along with a “thoughtful” emoji.
Ex-Chelsea star Hazard is among the seven players up for grabs with AC Milan linked with a move.
