The 1996–97 season was the Real Madrid CF's 66th season in La Liga. This article shows statistics of the club's players in the 1996–97 season. This was the first season since 1977–78 that Real Madrid would not compete in any European competition due to the previous season's lowest position finish in 19 years.

Summary

For the first time since the 1977–78 season Real Madrid only played in the domestic competitions after rejected to compete in 1996 Intertoto Cup.[1] Real Madrid returned to domestic glory in the only season under the Fabio Capello's reign, who, after much conflict with club president Lorenzo Sanz, already mid-season announced his exit in order to return to Italy. New signings Predrag Mijatović and Davor Šuker played alongside main striker Raúl González as well as Clarence Seedorf in midfield. Real Madrid was nearly on course to sign Newcastle United-bound Alan Shearer despite his best form at Blackburn Rovers but due to Real Madrid already have Raúl González as club's main striker, Alan Shearer was choose Newcastle United instead. Roberto Carlos, Carlos Secretário, Christian Panucci and mid-season Zé Roberto were also new signings in defence. Real Madrid won La Liga title on the last day of the season despite a 4-0 loss against Celta Vigo and thus Fabio Capello became the first-ever Italian manager to won the La Liga title but Real Madrid suffered an early domestic cup exit against eventual winners Barcelona in the Round of 16 after a 4-3 aggregate loss.
