Cristiano Ronaldo may be the best player on the planet today, but as he nears the age of 33, his time at the top will inevitably come to an end soon. The Portuguese superstar alongside Lionel Messi has dominated the world of football for years upon end. But every era must pass, and a new generation must eventually step up to change the guard.
Here are 5 players who could replace Cristiano Ronaldo at Real Madrid.
4Leroy Sané
The German youngster has been a revelation under the tutelage of Pep Guardiola. The Spaniard has taught the winger how to be both perfectly supportive and selfish simultaneously. Despite only being 21 years of age, Sané has already translated his potential into production on the pitch.
In 10 appearances this season, the 21-year-old has scored 7 goals and provided 4 assists, that’s the return of a world-class player. Age in the modern game is irrelevant, if you’re good enough, you’re old enough. At the Bernabéu, Sané would provide more assists than goals, but his productivity could eclipse that of Cristiano Ronaldo’s.
