Jude Bellingham
The Englishman, recently named player of the season in LaLiga, is the hottest player in European football right now. In search of his first Champions League in his home country, he has already won the Spanish league and Super Cup with Real Madrid. He arrived in the Spanish capital from Borussia Dortmund, where he spent three seasons and won a cup.
Reinier Jesus
The Brazilian is perhaps the most unknown player on this list. He currently plays for Real Madrid, although he has been on loan at Italian Serie A club Frosinone, with whom he was relegated. Last season he was on loan at Girona and spent two years on loan at Borussia Dortmund.
Achraf Hakimi
The Moroccan international, a semi-finalist at the last World Cup, is a product of the Real youth academy. He is currently with PSG, where he has been for three seasons. He arrived in Paris from Inter. He spent two seasons at Dortmund, where he won a German Super Cup in 2019 and became known to the general public. Two years earlier, he won a Spanish Super Cup with Real Madrid.
Nuri Sahin
The Turkish-German could not succeed at Real Madrid where he made just four appearances in the 2011-2012 season. He won LaLiga and the Super Cup under Mourinho.
He has fared better at Dortmund where he played a total of 11 seasons divided into three periods, winning one Bundesliga, one Cup, two Super Cups and was runner-up in the European Championships.
He is currently assistant coach to Edin Terzic at Borussia Dortmund, so he will be the only one, along with Bellingham, playing in the final.
Christoph Metzelder
The German defender spent three seasons at Real Madrid in which he played little part. However, he has one league title and one Spanish Super Cup to his name. He had previously spent seven seasons at Borussia Dortmund, where he was an important player and won a Bundesliga title.
Flavio Conceiçao
The Brazilian, who joined Madrid from Deportivo de La Coruna, spent three seasons in Chamartin, where he won two LaLiga titles and one Super Cup. He left the club to join Borussia Dortmund, where he spent only the 2003-2004 season before heading to Turkey to play for Galatasaray. With the Canarinha he won two America Cups.
