Summary[]
During summer the club failed to replace ageing Gunter Netzer with Brazilian midfielder Zico from Flamengo or English Forward Kevin Keegan from Liverpool F.C. both offers rejected by their teams.[1] The club collapsed to the 9th place in the most disastrous League campaign under Bernabeu Presidency era finishing 12 points below Champions Atlético Madrid despite the arrival of international Danish striker Henning Jensen[2] from Borussia Mönchengladbach. However, even with the chaotic club performance, head coach Miljan Miljanić remained in his position and was ratified by President Santiago Bernabéu on 7 June 1977[3]
