Real Madrid star has matched his G/A tally for the whole of last season | OneFootball

A head-turning statistic, highlighting the improved production of Real Madrid star Federico Valverde across the season to date has on Monday come to the fore online.

This comes owing to the Uruguayan’s exploits in Real’s meeting with Deportiva Minera.

Carlo Ancelotti’s troops are of course currently locked in action, with a place in the Last-16 of the Copa del Rey up for grabs.

Valverde, for his part, featured from the off in the clash, from his customary berth in the middle of the park.

And the 26-year-old has since gone on to play a starring role in the evening’s visitors racing out into a three-goal advantage.

First, Valverde opened the scoring in the clash courtesy of a fine finish, before later laying on the assist for Arda Güler to put Real Madrid 3-0 in front.

And such endeavours, as alluded to above, have since given rise to a head-turning statistic.

As revealed by StatMuse, Valverde has now racked up as many direct goal contributions this season as he did in the entirety of the 2023/24 campaign.
