Real Madrid are set to dissolve the club's 'C' team.

Marca says Real has not made it official as yet, but the decision has been made and all that remains to be done is to announce the team's death sentence.

There were rumours that something like this would happen last season. Now what the youth academy has been fearing all year is about to come true.

The club's C team are presently in Group VII of the fourth division. Two seasons ago they were in Segunda B (third division), but the relegation of Castilla to this league pushed them down. Unless there is a dramatic turn of events, this has been the last season for Real Madrid C, founded in 1990.
