Real Madrid will be looking to defend their La Liga title in a can’t-miss 2022-23 season.
Carlo Ancelotti’s side climbed to first place in 2021-22 and finished 13 points clear of next best Barcelona.
Desperate to dethrone their fierce rivals, Barca spent big over the summer and brought in stars like Robert Lewandowski, who look set to light up La Liga.
Atletico Madrid also remain a real force under Diego Simeone and will be eager to turn this into a three-way battle for the league title.
Australia will also have a new player in La Liga this season with Socceroos winger Awer Mabil joining Cadiz in the off-season.
