There are lots of of soccer superstars plying their trade in Spain’s top division, and it is rightly regarded as the number one domestic league in the whole world. Listed below are the players who are currently regarded as being the best in Spain…
Kaka : Brazilian midfield maestro Kaka, is a playmaker of the highest calibre. Able to thread a pass through the eye of a needle, or dribble past players to create a chance or score a goal, Kaka was the darling of AC Milan and led them to “Champions League” success in 2007. Now one of the jewels in Real Madrid’s crown, he aims to bring the La Liga title back to the Bernabau (where Real Madrid play their home games) after a few years absence.
Messi : Spearheading Barcelona’s unique treble winning team of 2008-09, Argentinean Lionel Andrs Messi dazzled Europe with his creativity and flair. Even though he is just 22, he is FIFA’s current “World Player of the Year” and he is likely to chalk up awards, goals and assists for many years to come.
Cristiano Ronaldo : Blistering pace and explosive power are what led to Ronaldo initially being signed by Manchester United manager Alex Ferguson. He started out as a winger, but soccer genius Ferguson soon realized that young Ronaldo’s skills were best exploited in a more central role. Ferguson’s decision was shown to be correct when Ronaldo netted over 40 premier league goals in his last season in the English Premier League. Now sporting the colors of Real Madrid, Ronaldo is hoping to make as big an impact for el Madrid as he did in the famous red shirt of Man Utd.
David Villa : Playing for Valencia, who are not one of the most glamorous teams in the league, David Villa Sanchez (to give him his full name) boasts an absolutely outstanding goals to games ratio. He was the winner of the “Golden Boot” for Spain at Euro 2008 (which means that he scored more goals at the tournament than anyone else) and is closing in on Spain’s all time international scorers record. Equally dangerous with either foot, Villa consistently attracts attention from Europe’s top clubs, who are all eager to land this prolific striker’s elusive signature.
