I checked. In an unscientific survey, I checked the height and weight listed for eight players on Real Madrid, David Beckham's team here - http://www.realmadrid.es/web_realmad...illafutbol.jsp

Survey says (from tallest to shortest)...

Zindane - 185 cm (6'1"), 78 kg (172 lbs.)
Guti - 185 cm (6'1"), 76 kg (168 lbs.)
Helguera - 185 cm (6'1"), 73 kg (161 lbs.)
Ronaldo - 183 cm (6'0"), 82 kg (181 lbs.)
Figo - 180 cm (5'11"), 75 C(165 lbs.)
Portillo - 180 cm (5'11"), 72 kg (159 lbs.)
Raul - 180 cm (5'11"), , 68 kg (150 lbs.)
Michael Salgado - 174 cm (5'8"), 75 kg (165 lbs.)
Roberto Carlos - 168 cm (5'6"), 70 kg (154 lbs.)

This would suggest they are slightly taller than average, but also very lean for their stated heights. I suspect that, like our sports, they lie up on the height and down on the weight, which would make them pretty damn average.
