Alonso helped Real Madrid complete the La Decima in 2014

The former Liverpool man was not a galactico signing per se but he deserves to be mentioned in the same breath as Cristiano Ronaldo or Karim Benzema because of his insane talent. The midfielder was an orchestrator in the centre of the park during his five-year stay with the club and helped Real Madrid win the much anticipated La Decima.

Sadly, he missed the final of that year's Champions League due to a suspension but played a huge role in Madrid reaching that stage. The Spaniard also won the La Liga in 2011/12. The midfield maestro played 158 times for Real Madrid and scored four goals before securing a move to Bayern Munich in 2014.

Rating - 6/10
