Nacho - Longest player left on team Nacho concludes the team recording 22 starts in 25 appearances, totaling a goal and an assist with 47 clearances and 33 tackles (21 won) in all competitions.
Impact Nacho is now the longest-reigning player on the team as he will be entering his 13th season with the club at the age of 33-years-old. He is a candidate for full-time captain, however his lack of playing time may influence the teams' decision to issue it to him. The defender is still expected to get playing time next season, but it would be tough with Dani Carvajal, David Alaba, Antonio Rudiger, Eder Militao, Ferland Mendy, Eduardo Camavinga, Lucas Vasquez all competing for playing time for the 2023/24 campaign.
JUNE 14, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Lucas Vazquez - Remains bench option Vazquez recorded 14 starts in 28 appearances, totaling four goals and two assists on 50 crosses (14 accurate) and 38 tackles (24 won) in all competitions.
Impact Vazquez continues to be just a bench option as he was Davi Carvajal's backup for most of the season. The 2023/24 campaign could be his last season with one year left on his contract and with lack on playing time since his arrival in 2015.
JUNE 14, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Ferland Mendy - Injured for most of 2023 Mendy ended the campaign recording 21 starts in 23 appearances, totaling an assist with 17 interceptions, 15 clearances and 24 tackles (14 won) in all competitions.
Impact Mendy played just four matches in 2023, spending most of the time of the sidelines with injuries. He will now have the challenge of competing with Eduardo Camavinga for starting left back role, who was brilliant during his absence for the 2023/24 season.
JUNE 14, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Eder Militao - Managed defense well this season Militao made 39 starts in 42 appearances, totaling six goals with 136 clearances and 56 tackles (37 won).
Impact Militao took over starting center back at the start of the 2021 season with the departure of long-time captain Sergio Ramos. He's proven to be an upstanding replacement, scoring five league goals, which was the most among all defenders in La Liga this year. He also averaged about 3.6 clearances per match. He is expected to lead the back line again for his third season in a row for the 2023/24 campaign.
JUNE 14, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Antonio Rudiger - Completes first year in Spain Rudiger ends the season recording 32 starts in 43 appearances, generating two goals and 93 clearances in all competitions.
Impact Rudiger was part of the back line that allowed 36 goals and just 13 clean sheets in league play, which is five more goals and three less clean sheets from 2021/22. The defender only average about 2.3 clearances per match, which is low for a center back. He is still the favorite to keep his starting position, but could be replaced with David Alaba, Lucas Vazquez and Ferland Mendy all options to play in the back line.
JUNE 14, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
David Alaba - Injury prone year Alaba totaled 30 starts in 30 appearances, recording a goal and three assists with 48 clearances and 45 crosses (13 won) in all competitions.
Impact Alaba was slammed with injuries throughout the season, leaving him sidelined for a quarter of the season. When available, the defender was a regular starter, switching from both center and left back. Because of his history of getting hurt, he may be more of a depth option for the 2023/24 campaign, with Eduardo Camavinga, Eder Militao, Antonio Rudiger and Dani Carvajal the favorite starters in the back.
JUNE 14, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Dani Carvajal - Candidate for new captain Carvajal recorded a total of 30 starts in 38 appearances, generating three assists on 69 crosses (10 accurate) and 50 tackles (29 won).
Impact Carvajal is one of the candidates to take over as captain of the team with the departure of Karim Benzema. He will be entering his 11th season with Real Madrid while continuing to put up consistent numbers from past seasons. The Spaniard will likely win the starting right back position over Lucas Vazquez for the 2023/24 campaign, but could also be awarded the privilege of the captain's armband full time as one of the longest standing players left.
