As Xabi Alonso`s Real Madrid prepares for a historic semi-final in the new FIFA international tournament, here are the players who have shone brightest for fantasy football enthusiasts so far.
One of the most anticipated teams at the FIFA Club World Cup was Xabi Alonso`s Real Madrid, with their former player returning to the Bernabéu as coach. The ex-Bayer Leverkusen manager`s debut wasn`t ideal, as Los Blancos were held to a 1-1 draw by Simone Inzaghi`s Al Hilal. However, their performance has steadily improved since then: Vinicius and his teammates have secured four consecutive victories against Pachuca, Salzburg, Juventus, and Borussia Dortmund. In the semi-final, Real Madrid will face European champions PSG in what promises to be a stellar clash, resembling an early final. As the competition enters such a crucial phase, making the right choices for your Global Fantasy Championship team becomes vital. Here are the five Real Madrid players with the highest average fantasy scores.
The Top 5 Performers
Gonzalo Garcia, a true revelation of the tournament, is also Real Madrid`s top-performing player in the Global Fantasy Championship so far. The forward boasts an impressive fantasy average of 9.5, having scored in four out of five matches. The Spanish international only missed scoring against Pachuca, though he still provided an assist in that game. Arda Guler found the net against the Mexicans and also delivered two crucial assists in the quarter-final against Borussia Dortmund, earning him the second-highest fantasy average among Los Blancos at 7.9. Completing the fantasy podium is Federico Valverde with 7.6, who has scored two goals against Pachuca and Salzburg. Kylian Mbappé takes the fourth spot with a fantasy average of 7.5, despite only playing in two matches.
