DC: Fabio Cannavaro
Another former Real Madrid man and also a World Cup winner with Italy in 2006, Fabio Cannavaro is one of the best central defenders of the modern era.
DC: Paolo Maldini
Perhaps the greatest defender of all time, Paolo Maldini won multiple Champions League titles in a career spent entirely with AC Milan.
MC: Claude Makelele
One of the finest defensive midfielders of his generation, Claude Makelele earns a place in Carlos’ side despite being hugely under-appreciated during his time at Real Madrid.
MC: Zinedine Zidane
An obvious choice for many who pick these all-time XIs, Zinedine Zidane is another Real Madrid great to make it into this lineup.
