Hes not in the plans, hasnt been for a while, but they cant get rid of him because nobody wants to pay what Real think hes worth or willing to assume his wages.



He is and has been persona non-grata at Madrid for a while now but they're largely stuck with each other unless Madrid sell him cheap and retain some of his pay.



So with Zidane trying to rebuild the team its no surprise that hes vocal about wanting to off-load him.
I get that, but this was still a guy who was a key cog in winning a number of trophies. It just comes off as petty and disrespectful.
