5 former Real Madrid players who came back to torment Los Blancos

#5 Luis Enrique

The versatile and consistent midfielder is the only player on the list to have agonised Real Madrid as both player and manager. He joined Real Madrid from Sporting Gijon in 1991 and was industrious for Los Blancos with his effervescent attitude on the ground. His stint at the Bernabeu ceased in 1996 during which time he won a La Liga title and a Copa del Rey.

He joined the arch-rivals Barcelona on a free transfer after explicitly lamenting Real Madrid fans for not supporting him enough. The 'Cules' were hesitant about the new signing, but he was eventually adored and made the team captain. The Gijon-born Spaniard paid back the love by scoring four times against Real Madrid in his 8-year tenure at the club. His most special game against his former team was the 1997 Copa del Rey final, where he stamped his midfield credentials to help Barcelona clinch the trophy at the Bernabeu.

After embracing the managerial role of Barcelona, he continued punishing Real. He designed three Barca wins in six El Clasicos, including a 4-0 rout in 2015.
