Players to watch out
Karim Benzema

Karim Benzema scored 27 goals and provided 12 assists in the last La Liga season being the top goal scorer of the league.
Vinicius Junior
Real Madrid’s winger is finally having his right form. Vinicius Junior when first arrived in Real Madrid, he did not match the expectations. He was bought and seen as a replacement of Cristiano Ronaldo. In his first 2 seasons he could not find his form but since the start of last season, he is tearing the opposition’s defenders. Vinicius scored 17 goals and provided 10 assists in 21-22 La Liga season.
Fede Valverde
Real Madrid’s midfielder is a world class talent. Fede Valverde can play anywhere in the pitch where his manager wants him to play and he’ll not disappoint. In the UEFA Champions League final he played in the right wing and was absolutely lethal. He was the one who provided a beautiful assist from a very difficult spot to Vinicius Junior which led his team to the victory.
