12 – Marcelo

Another current Real Madrid player makes it to the list, and this time it is another legendary Brazilian left-back, Marcelo. In his 15th season as a Madridista, Marcelo might be on the decline, but he has nothing to prove now and the world has witnessed his quality all these years.

He has that signature Brazilian style in him, and that was always visible in his gameplay. He is often regarded as the most skillful fullback ever, and in his prime, he was literally unstoppable. He had the perfect technique to humiliate a player, but above all, he had the ultimate passion to drive Real Madrid to glory. Players like him show how close a club can be to a player’s heart.

13 – Paco Buyo

The number 13 is often used by second-choice goalkeepers, so it is very difficult to choose one among them. Even Paco Buyo wore the number one for the majority of his career, but he is arguably the greatest ever to grace this number.

He’s someone who began his career as a winger but ended up as a goalkeeper. He was such a sensational keeper that he was literally untouchable between 1988 and 1997. He was a part of the “Quinta del Buitre”, and he went on to win 13 trophies in his 11 years at Real Madrid.
