DID YOU KNOW THE ONLY PLAYER TO HAVE EVER WON THE SPANISH LA LIGA TITLES FIVE TIMES IN A ROW PLAYING FOR TWO DIFFERENT CLUBS?

Danish football legend Michael Laudrup is one of the few illustrious players to have played for the El-Clásico rivals of FC Barcelona and Real Madrid intermitently from 1989/1990 season to the 1995/1996 season. Laudrup is the only player ever to win the Spanish La Liga five times in a row playing for two different clubs in the 1990/1991, 1991/1992, 1992/1993, 1993/1994 for FC Barcelona and in 1994/1995 season for Real Madrid.

He appeared for Real Madrid in a 5-0 win over FC Barcelona and also played for FC Barcelona when they beat Real Madrid 5-0 while he was playing at Camp Nou. He is now the manager of Swansea City in the English Premier League (EPL) replacing Northern Irishman Brendan Rodgers who left for Liverpool FC.
