Real Madrid: Grading the loanees at October break

Real Madrid may have the best collection of players out on loan in European football this season, so let’s take a look at how they’ve been performing through the first couple of months.

The October international break allows us to take a step back and look at all aspects of the Real Madrid squad through the first couple of months of the season, as there are more data points to use than at the September international break.

Although focusing on the current squad players who can help Real Madrid achieve La Liga and Champions League success is important, it’s all crucial to maintain an eye towards the future by checking in on key loanees.

Los Blancos have no shortage of talented players out on loan. Whether it’s Dani Ceballos soaking up headlines at Arsenal or Martin Odegaard making the case for being the absolute best player in the Spanish top flight thus far, there are also plenty of talking points surrounding these talented loanees.

But what about the likes of goalkeeper Luca Zidane and Leganes midfielder Oscar Rodriguez? Players at smaller clubs don’t tend to garner as much attention, but these are other Real Madrid loanees playing quality football in 2019.

So let’s take a broader look at all of Los Blancos’ loanees, grading their performances so far in the 2019-2020 season.
