When the Real Madrid of Sergio Ramos, Thibaut Courtois, Casemiro, Luka Modric and Toni Kroos won La Liga in 2020t, I wonder whether you could have named the guys who made the most appearances, the most starts and totted up the most minutes for Zinedine Zidane's side?
The clues are that it's one single player, he's out of contract in summer 2022, his agent says that he's keen to return "home," he's thrillingly rescued Madrid in each of the past two weekends and he's possibly the most underrated, underappreciated footballer across the the entire elite of European soccer.
