Brahim Díaz is certainly giving Carlo Ancelotti something to think about with his recent displays. The Moroccan winger has been making a strong case for more minutes on the pitch with his impressive performances.
In Real Madrid's recent match against Real Valladolid, Brahim came off the bench to make a huge impact, contributing a goal and an assist in their 3-0 win.
This isn’t a one-off; Brahim’s form has been stellar since last season, where he managed to score 12 goals. Since then, he’s added 13 goals and 10 assists to his tally, all in just 2097 minutes of playing time. This means that on average, Brahim either scores or assists every 91 minutes—a stat that puts him ahead of many of his fellow attackers at Real Madrid.
With such a strong contribution rate, the big question is whether Brahim should continue to be benched or if he deserves more playing time.
The arrival of other star players, including Kylian Mbappé, may complicate things, but Brahim’s determination to secure his place is clear.
