Real Madrid rarely immersed in a British talent pool during transfer The market, but some of our superstars have proven too much irresistible to the world’s largest club.
It is rare that they are English, Scottish and Welsh players – but Northern Ireland International did not draw a dazzling shirt from Los Blancosa – to trade the comfort of the blinding lights of the Santiago Bernabeu, but several walked that way in a professional era.
They brave enough to take over the showers enjoyed the mixed degrees of success in the sharp spotlight, with the relentless pressure to represent Spanish Behemota.
Here are eight Britons who played for Madrid – Rangled, of course.
In July 2007. Evaluation. That is pretty much saying.
‘Start how you want to continue’ was obviously missing from the book of the Phra with the Center. After missing the whole of his first season due to injury, Woodgate eventually made his debut against the athletic club at the beginning of his second term, but did not return from his own goal and red card at his Madrid port.
For Los Blancos, he only made 14 appearances before returning to England with a tail between his legs.
Michael Owen’s magic in the Spanish capital was shorter than Woodgate, but certainly more successful. Managed only one season with Madrid, although he struggled to establish himself as a regular among Galacticos.
Despite 16 goals in 45 appearances after crossing the Liverpool boy club, Owen failed to usurp the superstar of striker Raul and Ronald, he eventually accepted his fate and returned to Britain.
He is one of the few players representing Madrid and has not won any silver accessories with the club.
Caroline Weir was forced to wait for her transition to Real Madrid Femenino. Starting her career with Hibernian, after that she moved to England and enjoyed spells with Arsenal, Liverpool and Manchester City. But in 2022, she simply couldn’t resist Spain’s baits.
The long ACL injury interfered with her progress in the capital, but Weir wiped out the muscles in the role of number ten for Madrid. He still trades his store for the second best clothes of the League F, Scotland International is waiting for his first trophy with Las Blancas.
Despite being one of the most glamorous signatures Galacticos The modern history of Era and Madrid, the magic of David Beckham with the club was not an unambiguous success. His commercial value could never have been called into question, but he could not always repeat his Manchester United pattern in Spain.
The time ended in Madrid with 159 appearances, 20 goals and 51 assists and was crucial in La Liga 2006/07 triumph under Fabio Capello, but it remains that his stay in Spain was a little insidious – although he is not always any of his own guilt.
Laurie Cunningham was the first British to ever represent Madrid after she arrived at the club in 1979. He helped lead them to La Liga and Copa del Rey Glory in his first season, but injuries interfered with his ability to make a difference on the big stage.
He approached the abolition of the European Cup, but Madrid beat Liverpool 1-0 in the 1980/81 final.
The wing tragically died at the age of 33 after a car accident during his second spell with Ray Vallecan.
It’s been 15 years between the last release in Cunningham and Steve McManaman, who signed the Spanish titanium, and the fast wing player arrived after nine years with the boy’s color Liverpool. He became only the second Briton who wore a white jersey.
Despite the slow start of life in Spain, McManaman eventually won the heart of Madrid supporters during the tumultuous period for the club outside the field. The endeavor and telepathic relationship of England International with Robert Carlos down the left side helped the club to achieve great success at the turn of the century.
McMmanaman won two Champions League Titles – Scoring in the 2000 finals – and as many La Liga crown over four years in Bernabeu.
Little could have predicted that Jude Bellingham would settle as quickly as in the Bernabeu. After his arrival from Borussia Dortmund 2023, the midfielder quickly became a clutch performer for Madrid on the biggest stages.
Playing with the confidence and consistency of someone ten years of his senior, the young Englishman won the Madrid supporters with a raft of late and decisive goals both in the country and in Europe. Was crucial in League And the Champions League wins during his debut campaign.
The sky remains the border for Bellingham, who can enter the Pantheon of the Madrid greats, the end of his career has come.
Although he never held himself in the same view as his peers who deal with the world, the legacy of the Gareth Bale in Madrid cannot be questioned. Welshman may have enjoyed Golf more than football during his stay in Spain, but still assisted Los Blancos to dominate Europe in the late 2010s.
He won 15 trophies in nine years in Madrid, including three La Liga Crowns and five Champions League titles, even achieved The greatest goal In the history of the latter with its stunning overhead blow in the 2017/18 final.
By praising the magnificent left leg and ridiculous athletism, Bale simply couldn’t stop at his best.
