The best right backs in Real Madrid's history

Real Madrid has had great right-backs throughout its history. Transfermarkt has created a ranking with the 10 players who have reached the highest market value in that position.

It should be clarified that this list doesn't necessarily reflect their performance at the club. Some players did not succeed in white or left early, but their market value was high thanks to their potential and projection.

Transfermarkt combines the opinion of its community with analysis of factors such as age, position, performance, reputation, and market demand. It also takes into account statistics, league level, and marketing value. The system is updated periodically to reflect changes in the footballers' careers.

The top-10 right-backs

Trent Alexander-Arnold appears in first place. His peak value was €110 million. The Englishman is considered one of the best in the world in his position, and his projection has placed him at the top of Madrid's historical ranking.

In second place are Marcos Llorente and Achraf Hakimi, both with a maximum value of €80 million. Llorente established himself as a versatile player at Atlético de Madrid. Meanwhile, Hakimi has shown quality, speed, and attacking ability that caught the attention of major European clubs such as Borussia Dortmund, Inter, and PSG, where he seems settled.

Dani Carvajal remains on the list with €60 million as his peak value. The right-back from Leganés has become a reference for Madrid thanks to his consistency and performance in key matches. Many consider him the best right-back in the club's history.

Further down are Álvaro Odriozola with €30 million and Lucas Vázquez with €25 million. Both have had irregular spells at the club, but their value reflects their potential and versatility in attack and defense.

The top 10 is completed by Juanfran Torres with €18 million, and Cicinho, Alex Jiménez, and Iván Fresneda with a maximum of €15 million each. All of them were developed at the club and projected themselves to other major teams.

This ranking shows how market value doesn't always match success at Real Madrid. Some players did not reach their best version at Chamartín, but their potential and projection allowed them to have a remarkable economic value.

Thus, Transfermarkt offers an interesting perspective on Madrid's right-backs, combining history, projection, and demand in today's soccer market.
