Real Madrid head coach, Alvaro Arbeloa, has revealed his five untouchable players, highlighting Kylian Mbappe and Vinicius Junior as the duo he wants on the field every match. Arbeloa, who recently replaced Xabi Alonso as Madrid’s manager, stressed the importance of having his top performers consistently available.

Since taking charge at the Santiago Bernabeu, Arbeloa has guided the team to several La Liga victories, including a notable 6-1 win over AS Monaco in the UEFA Champions League, though his unbeaten run ended with a 4-2 loss at Benfica. Mbappe and Vinicius have featured in all four games under Arbeloa, reflecting their critical roles in the squad.

In addition to the two forwards, Arbeloa named midfielders Jude Bellingham and Fede Valverde, and goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois as his other indispensable players. He praised their ability to change the game instantly, noting that Madrid fans expect these top performers to be on the pitch whenever possible.

Arbeloa emphasized the global quality of his five key players, saying they are among the top ten in the world, and their on-field performance earns them his trust. His latest win came against Rayo Vallecano, a 2-1 home victory in La Liga, further cementing his early impact as Madrid’s manager.
