Real Madrid's roster has undergone some major changes with the Los Galacticos signed Cristiano Ronaldo and Kaka.

The Spanish club may not be done, however. Various reports indicate that Real Madrid president Florentino Perez is prepared to sign Valencia striker David Villa. Villa shot to fame after leading the Spanish national team to victory at Euro 2008.

Real Madrid has also been linked to France's Franck Ribery and Ecuador's Antonio Valencia.

Word has it that the Liverpool is considering an offer from Real Madrid for Xabi Alonso. The Basque midfielder may hesitate to join Real Madrid since the team has long been associated with former Spanish dictator Francisco Franco, who is reviled throughout the Basque region.

Here is the current Real Madrid roster. Expect more changes as we enter transfer season.
