Real Madrid vs Juventus: Combined XI for the pre-season clash
Striker – Dušan Vlahović
There have been many new names added to the roster of young attackers in recent years, and one of these players is Dusan Vlahovic, who just signed with Juventus following some impressive displays at Fiorentina that brought him much notice around Europe.
Vlahovic has developed into one of the most talented young attackers in the world, and he has already begun to live up to the expectations at Juventus. The Serbian international possesses tremendous striker ability, and his off-the-ball mobility, particularly the fast switch of pace longitudinally heading towards the goal while defeating many defenders at once, is incredibly commendable.
He is always dangerous in front of goal, and a slight distraction might allow Vlahovic to find space behind the net.
Striker – Karim Benzema
“When I speak about Benzema, only one word comes to mind, it’s class. He is class. When he plays, whatever he does, he does it with class” – Thierry Henry
You might make the worst mistake of your life and still have Benzema in a squad that requires a lethal striker. As a goalkeeper, you don’t want to blink an eye when Benzema is on the field because he can perform the unfathomable in a split second and leave you standing, speechless.
The Frenchman has been so excellent in recent years, not that he has been any worse in previous ones, that he was called up for the France national team that had previously won a world cup because they needed what Benzema could bring.

I could go on for many pages about why Benzema belongs on this list before realising that there is practically no reason to do so. Everything he does and everything that emanates from him is public knowledge and is highly regarded. You simply cannot afford to overlook Karim Mostafa Benzema, the best player in the world.
