The sporting disappointment has translated directly into a financial nightmare. Further compounded by their recent elimination from the Champions League quarter-finals at the hands of Bayern Munich and the reality of trailing Barcelona by nine points in La Liga, the Real Madrid squad has been devalued by a staggering €176 million (£153m/$207m), according to Transfermarkt. Key figures who were once considered untouchable assets are seeing their market prices slashed as the cost of failure becomes a reality for the Spanish giants.
