#8 Samuel Eto’o
The Cameroonian striker was a real menace in his day, and could have been a Madrid legend, had Los Blancos realised how big of a talent they had on their hands before letting him leave for Mallorca.
Well, Barcelona snatched him up after that, and the rest is history. The forward went on to score 130 times for them during a five-year span, winning three La Liga titles and two Champions League trophies.
He was sold to Inter Milan as part of an exchange for Zlatan Ibrahimovic, but it would be Inter who would enjoy more success, as Eto’o helped the Italian club to the treble in his very first season.
