The best midfielders in the history of the League
- Xavi Hernández El mejor entre los mejores. Not only because Spanish is the player with the most titles in history but also because, with his football has been the best. Barca and Spain will take many years to have a player with his vision of the game and how to interpret this sport. Sin duda, the first list.
- Ruben Baraja. He was with David Albelda couple the best midfielders in the history of Valencia CF. He “Stocking cap”, He was formed in Valladolid and played for Atletico Madrid and Valencia where he settled and reached the biggest hits of his career. It is possibly one of the best that has given Spain.
- Claude Makelele. When the French arrived to play Celta Vigo few could expect the spectacular performance would give this small but powerful midfielder. His later stage in the Real Madrid, showed that that Real Madrid of the galactics needed an anchor and Noise lo era, not only that urban myth about its member but for his game. Florentino took it off because it did not sell shirts and made his first big mistake in his first stint as white president.
- Fernando Redondo. The Argentine was on the green A “5” Argentine classic lifelong. Dominator of all type of game, It was a fine stylist with the ball but also a hard puncher when the situation required. First in Tenerife, then Real Madrid, Fernando Redondo proved to be one of the best in his position. His backheel at Old Trafford was for history.
- Gaizka Mountains. The bat of the shield according to Pedro Cortés. It was the emblem of a Valencia that grazed the Champions twice. Despite starting his career in Castellón and its beginnings in Valencia as a side, Mendieta ended up being one of the best midfielders in the history of Valencia club and that at first it was considered a player simply wrestler. He left retina for some of the best goals in the history of Valencia. Subsequent spell at Barcelona was not as successful.
- Luka Modric. The Real Madrid engine room has been safely sheltered for many years with the talented Croatian footballer. Ganador del Balón de Oro de 2018.
- Toni Kroos. Modric's partner in the Madrid midfield. Game vision, tempos management…the German is one of the best who has passed through this position in the history of the Spanish championship.
- Xabi Alonso. At Real Sociedad and at Real Madrid they know well the benefits of one of the best midfielders in the history of the League. It applied the term ‘positional’ better than nobody.
