Luka Modrić and Nacho Fernández are on the verge of enhancing their legendary status with Real Madrid, as they are currently tied with Marcelo and Karim Benzema with 25 trophies won for the club.
As per Marca, winning the Champions League would propel them to the summit, while also matching Paco Gento’s seemingly unattainable record of 26 trophies won with the club.
Real Madrid’s duo has the chance to further solidify their legacy this season. With the recent league triumph, they reached the same milestone as Benzema and Marcelo, previously the most decorated players in the club’s history.
The journey is still not over, however, as their place in the history books could be one step closer after their upcoming Champions League semi-final second leg against Bayern Munich. The teams stand level after a thrilling 2-2 draw in the first leg, reflecting the strength of both sides in European competition.
Nacho and Modrić boast identical trophy cabinets at Real Madrid, including five Champions Leagues, four La Ligas, and numerous other accolades. Triumphing against Bayern could elevate them to the ranks of legends like Paco Gento, solidifying their place in football history.
