Real Madrid: Still a Top Contender Despite Departures

The seasons follow one another, the players come and go but Real Madrid is always at the top of the bill. Despite the successive departures of its stars like Cristiano Ronaldo, Gareth Bale, Casemiro and Karim Benzema, the Merengues almost always manage to be among the favorites for final victory in the Champions League. This is still the case this year, especially after the success on the pitch of RB Leipzig in the round of 16 first leg (1-0) this Tuesday. This is the observation made by Steffan Effenberg in the columns of Kicker. For the former Bayern captain, the club is more important than anything else and Benzema’s departure last summer was a good thing.

“It’s a mix of experienced stars and talented, hungry players. Furthermore, Carlo Ancelotti is a coach who simply feels comfortable in Madrid and who identifies with this task. Maybe it was even a good thing for Real Madrid that Karim Benzema said goodbye and Vinicius Júnior and the others were free to play up front. Real still has this hunger. It’s simply Real Madrid, it’s a myth.”affirms the one who won the Champions League against Valencia in 2001. It is true that the Spanish club, leader of La Liga, does not seem to regret for the moment the departure of the 2022 Ballon d’Or.
