The 1975–76 season was Real Madrid Club de Fútbol's 73rd season in existence and the club's 44th consecutive season in the top flight of Spanish football.

Summary

The club clinched its 17th league title, finishing five points above runners-up CF Barcelona. Despite Cruijff, Neeskens and Co. having a better offensive line, Real Madrid managed to counterweight that with a brilliant defensive line that ultimately won them the trophy. During the summer, a back up line reinforcement Juan Sol arrived from Valencia.^[1] being crucial for the team during the campaign.^[2]

In the European Cup, the squad reached the semi-finals, losing the tie against back-to-back Champions Bayern Munich.^[3] The club was eliminated early in the Copa del Generalísimo round of 16 by underdogs CD Tenerife, despite playing the decisive match at the Santiago Bernabéu Stadium.^[4]
