Iconic auction house Sotheby’s are being trusted with presenting and offloading the items that Real are willing to part with. The lots in question include a collection of 24 lockers that have been used by some of the most legendary 'Galacticos' to pass through Madrid – including Ronaldo, Beckham, Zidane, Sergio Ramos, Karim Benzema and Luka Modric.

Each locker comes with a reserve price of £10,000, with bidding set to open on November 12. A glitzy exhibition at Sotheby’s London Galleries will allow members of the public to view the items before they are snapped up by fans around the world.
