Vinicius Jr n’ is no longer the best dribbler of Real Madrid, the numbers speak !
Vinicius Jr has long been known for his ability to unbalance defenses, standing out at Real Madrid for his exceptional dribbling skills. Since his arrival from Flamengo in 2018, the Brazilian has been a dominant force on the left wing, consistently outmaneuvering opponents.
His partnership with Karim Benzema was instrumental in Real Madrid’s success under Carlo Ancelotti, leading to two Champions League titles, with Vinicius playing a key role. Last season, he delivered outstanding performances, positioning himself as a leading contender for the 2024 Ballon d’Or, although some argue in favor of Dani Carvajal.
However, this season, to the surprise of many, Vinicius Jr has been eclipsed by a new Real Madrid star in terms of dribbling.
Kylian Mbappe: Real Madrid’s Best Dribbler This Season
Real Madrid’s start to the season has seen some disruption, notably with the arrival of Kylian Mbappe, which has shaken up the dynamics at the club. Vinicius Jr has faced criticism for not living up to his usual high standards, and some speculate that Mbappe’s presence may have contributed to this dip in form.
In their match against Villarreal at the Bernabéu, it wasn’t until after Mbappe’s substitution that Vinicius dazzled the crowd with a spectacular goal. Yet, a surprising statistic reveals that Mbappe, not Vinicius, currently leads the team in successful dribbles.
So far this season, Mbappe has completed 23 dribbles in La Liga, averaging 2.9 per game, while Vinicius has managed only 20, with an average of 2.2 per match. While Vinicius tends to excite with more flamboyant dribbling, Mbappe’s dribbles are more tactical, helping him advance without necessarily thrilling the crowd.
