Here, let’s break down some of the best to have worn both uniforms.</p>

<p></p></div>
<h2>Ronaldo</h2>
<p>The Brazilian legend has spent only a season in Barcelona but it was one to remember, as he scored an impressive <strong>34 goals in 37 league matches</strong>. <strong>Ronaldo</strong>, who also <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/hakan-calhanoglu-joins-rivals-best-players-to-play-for-inter-and-milan-20210623-0002.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">played both</a> for <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/inter-t127" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><strong>Inter</strong></a> and <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/ac-milan-t27122" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><strong>AC Milan</strong></a>, joined Real Madrid in 2002. He won four titles and racked up 104 goals in 177 appearancesin his fiveseasonsinthe Spanish capital.</p>
<h2>Luis Figo</h2>
<p>Joining the rivals could be seen as a betrayal and fans may never forgive you for that. If not, ask <strong>Luis Figo</strong>, whose <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/messi-joins-psg-13-superstars-who-have-left-barcelona-on-bad-terms-20210811-0011.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">controversial departure</a> from Barca to sign for Real Madridmade him lose all the love from Los Cules. He went on to be part of <strong>Los Galacticos</strong>, winning the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/champions-league-t24" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><strong>UEFA Champions League</strong></a>.</p>
<h2>Bernd Schuster</h2>
<p>But Figo wasn’t the only one who joined the rivals directly from Barcelona. <strong>Bernd Schuster</strong> did it before him in 1988. His career was <strong>full of controversial situations</strong> but also of <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/who-is-more-successful-barcelona-or-real-madrid-20211017-0016.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">success</a>, as he enjoyed great results both with Barca and El Merengue.</p>

<p>Beforemaking his way into Barcelona’s history books, <strong>Luis Enrique</strong> played for Real Madrid between 1991 and 1996. He won three titles and scored23 times in 241appearances, but those numbers would get much better in Barca. Five trophies and<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/el-clasico-all-time-top-goalscorer-20211017-0013.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">115 goals</a> in 333 matchesmade him a fan favorite, a love he renewed many years later as manager. At the helm of a team with the likes of <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/lionel-messi-t13" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><strong>Lionel Messi</strong></a>, <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/neymar-t25325" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><strong>Neymar</strong></a>, and <strong>Luis Suarez</strong> (the famous MSN) he delivered nine trophies.</p>
<h2>Samuel Eto’o</h2>
<p>His spell in Real Madrid may have gone unnoticed, but <strong>Samuel Eto’o</strong> played in the Spanish capital before shining at Barcelona. He played only seven games without scoring, and many years later, after a fantastic rise in <strong>Mallorca</strong>, he chose Los Cules over Madrid.</p>
<h2>Michael Laudrup</h2>
<p>Another player who switched Barca for Real Madrid, <strong>Michael Laudrup</strong> thrived at Camp Nou buthis bad relationship with <strong>Johan Cruyff</strong> made him leave the club in 1994, five years later after joining Los Cules from <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/juventus-t12" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><strong>Juventus</strong></a>.</p>
<h2>Javier Saviola</h2>

<p>Following a promising breakthroughin <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/river-t27" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><strong>River Plate</strong></a> and <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/argentina-t30" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><strong>Argentina</strong></a>‘s U20s, Barcelona acquired Javier Saviola, who amassed 74 goals in 172 appearances in his four seasons at the club. But, after loan spells in <strong>Monaco</strong> and <strong>Sevilla</strong>, he didn’t renew with Barca and joined Real Madrid, where he spentonly two seasons and scored five goals in 31 appearances.</p>
<p><strong>Gheorghe Hagi</strong>, <strong>Julen Lopetegui</strong>, <strong>Robert Prosinecki</strong>, <strong>Alfonso Perez</strong>, <strong>Nando Muñoz</strong>,<strong> Luis Milla</strong>, <strong>Albert Celades</strong>, <strong>Daniel Garcia</strong>, and <strong>Ricardo Zamora</strong> were other players who worn both shirts. <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer/gerard-pique-reveals-which-real-madrid-star-came-close-to-joining-barcelona-20211019-0013.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">A current Real Madrid star was close to joining Barcelona</a> as well, but that didn’t happen and he will face them this weekend in a game that will be broadcast by <a href="https://go.web.plus.espn.com/c/2743850/1161082/9070" rel="sponsored,nofollow noopener" target="_blank">ESPN+</a> in the US.<span></span></p>
