The 27-year-old was top scorer at the World Cup (10 goals in eight games) as well as in last season’s Champions League (15 goals in 11 games) and La Liga (25 goals in 31 games). But he won nothing as France lost in the World Cup semi-finals and Real finished second in La Liga and were bundled out of the Champions League by Bayern Munich in the quarter-finals.
