The players will be able to keep the cars until the end of the season before returning them, AS reports, however will receive a brand new model at the same time next year, should the manufacturer's partnership with the club continue as expected.

Zidane's squad can't spend too much time playing with their new Christmas toys, however, with Real Madrid set to take on rival FC Barcelona in El Clasico on Wednesday night.

The clash at the Camp Nou is the first time the two sides have met this season after the original match in October was postponed due to protests in Catalonia. It will decide who will claim the top spot in La Liga just ahead of Christmas.

Barcelona is currently top with 35 points, however Madrid trails only by goal difference, meaning a win for Zidane's side will see it jump its nemesis into first place.

The game also holds special importance because the winner will take the crown of having won the most El Clasico wins in history, with both sides having won 72 times in the past.

Kick off is at 7 p.m. GMT.
