Don't start to panic just yet Chelsea fans but Zinedine Zidane has asked Florentino Perez for two of your players in the near future, and it's not very often that Real don't get their men or man.
You'd have thought that winning the Champions League back-to-back and winning La Liga for the first time in five years would mean that Zinedine Zidane pretty much had a guaranteed job at Real Madrid for a while yet.
But football doesn't work like that, especially not at the Bernabeu, and with his side struggling this season, 14 points off Barcelona in La Liga and finishing second to Spurs in their Champions League group, pressure is mounting on Zizou.
Only Vicente del Bosque and Jose Mourinho have lasted three years at the Bernabeu under Florentino Perez and Zidane is now two years into the job. But that impending doom hasn't stopped him eyeing two high profile signings.

According to El Confidencial the former World Cup winner has asked Perez for two signings from Chelsea. Zizou wants to add Eden Hazard and N'Golo Kante to his team, although there's no news of when Los Blancos could make a move.
It would come as no surprise to anyone to see Hazard linked with a move to Real. He has long been thought of as a potential Real Madrid player and as well as a possible future move for Neymar he seems like the perfect choice to bolster their attacking line.
Kante is a more surprising selection. There's no doubt that the former Leicester City midfielder has the quality to play at the Bernabeu and allow everyone to lazily call him the 'new Makelele' but with Casemiro performing so well in a similar role it would seem odd to sign the Frenchman.
Antonio Conte would not want to lose two of his best players. He has already been linked heavily to a possible Kante replacement in Arturo Vidal but it's more likely he'd want to pair them up.

Hazard would be even more difficult to replace and would take a lot of money to sign another world class player in a similar position.
Conte's future itself is in doubt with Chelsea unlikely to defend their title and rumours the Italian wants to return home.
One way or another Real usually get who they want!
