Real Madrid star leads Barcelona’s Lamine Yamal as La Liga’s best chance creator this season

Real Madrid star Arda Güler continues to lead all players in Spanish football’s top-flight when it comes to chance creation across the season to date.

This comes amid what has been a stellar opening to the term on the part of the Turkish international.

Real Madrid are of course fresh off a damaging first defeat of the campaign on Saturday night, downed by a solitary goal at Real Betis. Youngster Arda, though, shone in adversity, continuing to carve out clear-cut goalscoring opportunities courtesy of guile, technique and vision.

All told, across his first four appearances of 2026/27, the 21-year-old has now racked up a head-turning 19 chances created all told.

This is three more than any other player, with Barcelona’s Lamine Yamal, after another starring performance in a 5-0 drubbing of Valencia on Sunday, now with 16 to his name.

From here, a drop all the way down to 11 chances is noted, with both Unai López and Iñigo Vicente having hit this mark.
