The summer transfer window has only just closed, but Zinedine Zidane is already thinking about who his side will target during next summer's window following a disappointing start to the season, according to 'Don Balon'.
Eden Hazard and David De Gea are reportedly on Madrid's watchlist, along with Dortmund's Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang and Juventus star Paulo Dybala.
According to Spanish publication 'Don Balon', Zidane has been concerned with Los Blancos start to the season, and is already looking to next summer as they 'BBC' attacking trident are already on a downward slope.
If Madrid's sub-par form should continue, it could mean a busy summer of transfer activity at the Santiago Bernabeu next year, and Zidane will give his side until Christmas to impress him, after which he will seriously start planning for next season.
David De Gea has, of course, been linked with Real Madrid before and was very close to making a move there in the summer of 2015. It is also not the first time Eden Hazard has been on Madrid's radar, but they are yet to actually make an offer for the Belgian winger.
Hazard is yet to start a game for Chelsea last year, after suffering a knee injury whilst on international duty with Belgium in the summer, but if he replicates his stellar form from previous seasons then it seems likely that Real Madrid will turn their interest into something more concrete next summer.
