There will be one more year of Luka Modric magic at Real Madrid after the Croatian midfielder signed a contract extension till 2025. But did you know the 38-year-old is one of the two most decorated players in the club's history? Who does he share that pedestal with and who are the most successful players for Los Blancos? Let's find out...

26 Trophies - Luka Modric & Nacho Fernandez

Modric arrived at the Bernabeu in 2012 and has since lifted 26 titles - the joint-most in the club's history. He shares that record with defender Nacho, who recently left the club after 23 long years.

The pair have won six Champions League titles, five FIFA Club World Cups, five Spanish Super Cups, four European Super Cups, Four La Liga titles and two Copa Del Rey titles. [GFX]

And given the club's penchant for winning silverware, Modric could finish his Real Madrid career with as many as 32 trophies should they win the sextuple.

Dani Carvajal, Benzema, Marcelo - 25 Trophies

Trailing the duo are the trio of Dani Carvajal, Karim Benzema, and Marcelo with 25 trophies apiece. Carvajal joined that list having added three trophies to his name last season.

While Benzema and Marcelo had spent 14 and 15 years with Real Madrid before their departures in 2023 and 2022 respectively, Carvajal has been at the club for 11 seasons. The Spaniard, who was part of the successful Euro winning team with Spain this month, will become the second-most decorated player or even the most decorated player if he outstays Modric at the Bernabeu.

23 Trophies - Paco Gento

Third on that illustrious list is Francisco Gento fondly known as Paco Gento . The left forward has won 23 trophies and holds the record for most La Liga triumphs with 12 to his name.

He also has won six European Cup titles, a record shared with Carvajal, Modric, Nacho and Toni Kroos.

22 Trophies - Toni Kroos, Sergio Ramos, & Manolo Sanchis

That brings us to number 22, which features Kroos alongside Sergio Ramos and Manolo Sanchis. Ramos spent 16 years at the club since joining in 2005 while Kro`os was at the club for a decade till his retirement earlier this year.

Sanchis meanwhile is the last of the four Real Madrid players who remained a one-club man, winning as many as eight different competitions.

19 Trophies - Iker Casillas & Isco

And last on the top 5 list are Iker Casillas and Isco with 19 trophies. Like Sanchis, Casillas too has lifted trophies in eight different competitions. The pair even shared the dressing room for a couple of seasons as San Iker made his breakthrough while Sanchis was in the twilight of his playing career. Isco meanwhile spent nine seasons with the Spanish giants winning as many trophies in six competitions.
