Brazil & Real Madrid legend

Roberto Carlos

Left-back · 1992-2015

Four La Liga titles, three Champions League winners medals, and 125 caps for Brazil. The free kick against France in 1997 still gets played every week somewhere in the world. Across fifteen years at the top of the club game and a 2002 World Cup with Brazil, Roberto Carlos turned the modern attacking full-back into a position of its own. What he brings to Striver is the detail behind that career: how he trained, what he watched, the calls he made under pressure.
