WHAT HAPPENED?
With Santiago Bernabeu having undergone a serious facelift, several artefacts are being put up for auction by the Blancos. A portion of proceeds from the sales will be going to the Real Madrid Foundation, with the Liga giants recouping some of the costs involved in their £500 million ($649m) stadium redevelopment.
