Nacho at the time with Real Madrid has given all his efforts to put his club at the top. He has won lots of trophies for the club. Including five Champions League trophies, three La Liga trophies, two Copa Del Rey trophies, five Club World Cups, three Super Cups, and five Supercopa De Espana. Winning 23 trophies at the club and making it easier and set up an example for the young academy players to look after Nacho Fernandez.
Nacho’s last task for him to win the Champions League trophy for the last time as a captain but also to lift the La Liga trophy as well as they are up ahead in the table. Real Madrid will be looking to buy another promising Fullback after Nacho as they did after Sergio Ramos’s demise from the club and buying Antonio Rudiger.
The upcoming match of Madrid vs. Barcelona
Real Madrid will also face Barcelona where they will look to maintain their record of unbeaten games at the home. Nacho will look to beat Barcelona’s unbeaten away games at the Santiago Bernabeu Stadium in Madrid. Where he has the advantage of getting support from the fans and the atmosphere.
There might be a challenge where they might have to face the likes of Yamal, Raphinha, Gundogan, and Lewandowski. Real Madrid has been managing to beat any team without any striker. Vini Jr, Rodrygo, and Bellingham are doing a fantastic job managing Madrid toward the victories.
Not Only Nacho Will be Leaving the Club
Alongside Nacho the one-time Ballon d’Or winner Luka Modric is also expected to leave the Real Madrid squad as the contract is not extended. Nacho has declined to extend his contract. However, alongside Nacho and Modric Toni Kroos and Lucas Vazquez’s contract is expected to be extended. The German Sniper Toni Kroos has scored 28 goals and 96 assists, and Lucas Vazquez has scored 34 goals and 61 assists.
At the time of the departure, there will be a new discussion over a new captain. The most probable potential for Real Madrid’s new captain could be Antonio Rudiger because of his leadership skills in the toughest times and his defending and mind-manipulating skills against his opponents.
He also would be comparable to Sergio Ramos. Also, he brought the victory against Man City in Etihad. The next probable captain could also be Jude Bellingham due to his game tempo skills, he could be comparable as a leader to Xavi, Iniesta, and even Zinedine Zidane.
