Roberto Carlos joined Delhi Dynamos in 2015 as their Marquee signing

Roberto Carlos is widely regarded as one of the best left-backs of all time. He was one of the 'Galacticos' of the intimidating Real Madrid squad built up by Florentino Perez in the last decade.

With Real Madrid he would go on to win 4 La Liga titles, 3 Super Cups and 3 Champions League trophies. And he became one of the legends of the game when he helped Brazil claim the World Cup trophy for a record fifth time in 2002.

He became world-renowned for his free-kick taking abilities, for which he was called El Hombre Bala. He routinely unleashed free-kicks measuring 105 miles-an-hour with his left-foot.

In 2015, he decided to join Delhi Dynamos as their player-manager. Unfortunately, his playing days were way behind him and we only got to see him play 3 times.

He did lead the team to semi-finals for the first time that season but lost the 2 leg fixture to Zico's FC Goa. After one season, he decided his time at ISL was up and he left the club after his contract expired.
