FIFA 17: 15 Real Madrid Player Ratings Leaked

For a man to last seven seasons as Real Madrid's lone marksman is an impressive feat, what with the never-ending funds at the club's disposal. If the likes of Florentino Perez sniffed out even the slightest gap in Benzema's armour, he would be replaced quicker than you could say 'Higuain'.

Despite a shaky start in the capital, where his nine goals in his debut season meant that he dodged the annual cull by the skin of his teeth, Benzema has shown himself to be a world-class striker who has hit over 20 goals every campaign since.

In terms of goals-to-games, last term was the best in his professional career. His 24 goals in 27 league games, and 28 in 36 appearances overall, were a fine tally and went some way to showing the Frenchman's mental strength as he put aside the controversy surrounding the blackmail plot that had clouded his relationship with compatriot Mathieu Valbuena - and that would ultimately rob him of his Euro 2016 berth.
