With the Conference finals and the Champions League finals left to play, the European football season is definitely over.
For some, the time has come and they are going on a well-deserved holiday. These are the players who have played the most during the season. And especially in a season that was interrupted in the middle by the World Cup in Qatar.
At the top of the list of players with the most games in the 2022/23 season, we find Bruno Fernandes. The Portuguese has been a key man for Manchester United and has made every appearance when he could.
He missed one game in the Premier League due to cards, otherwise he started 37 games. 11 games he added in domestic cups, another 11 in the Europa League. He made nine starts for the national team. In total, he played 68 matches.
In second place is Lautaro Martínez. The Inter Milan striker played all 38 games in Serie A, added six in domestic cups, made 12 appearances in the Champions League and ten for the national team. In total, he made 66 starts.
Rodrygo has the third highest number of matches. Overall, in this ranking, we find quite a few Real Madrid players who have also featured in the Club World Cup and also the Spanish Super Cup takes two matches compared to one in the other leagues.
The Brazilian has pitched in 34 games in La Liga, six in the Copa del Rey, two in the Super Cup, 12 in the Champions League, twice in the Club World Cup and once in the UEFA Super Cup. In addition, he has worn the yellow jersey of the national team seven times, thus playing a total of 64 matches.
64 games played by three players. Eduardo Camavinga, Bernardo Silva and Luka Modric. Especially for a 37-year-old footballer, it is admirable that even at such an age he can hold himself to the highest level.
