Kovacic is not the only player who wants to quit the Bernabeu

Real Madrid have a serious problem in the dressing room. Several first team players have told the club they want to leave this summer due to a lack of minutes. 

A few days ago Mateo Kovacic confirmed as much to the press while at the World Cup with Croatia, but he's not the only player who is keen to move on from the Bernabeu. 

The others looking for life elsewhere include Dani Ceballos, Marcos Llorente and Luca Zidane, as well as Raul de Tomas, who has been on loan at Rayo Vallecano. 

According to El Confidencial, the players do not want to waste another year at Madrid, despite the arrival of Julen Lopetegui as the club's new coach. 

Ceballos, who was signed last summer, is not against a return to Real Betis, where he knows he will get chances to play under Quique Setien. 

Meanwhile, Llorente has offers from Sevilla and Alaves -- he was on loan at the latter in 2016/17, helping them reach the Copa del Rey final. 

The final case is Raul de Tomas. The forward had a fine season with Rayo but he knows he won't play at Madrid, so if open to offers, with one on the table from Getafe.
