BR - Real Madrid are one of the biggest, most successful and quite possibly best-supported football clubs on the entire planet.
Their fan base stretches across continents, their playing staff come from all areas of the globe and their success across more than a century knows no bounds.
As a result, they are the focus of media intervention every single day with questions, politics and suspicion providing a constant backdrop to the actual on-pitch battles that make the club what it is in the first place.
