Players to Watch
Alejandro Grimaldo (Bayer Leverkusen)
Grimaldo is not just a wingback. He is a player who understands the game very well and can contribute significantly to both defence and attack. His intelligence on the pitch is impressive.
He plays with flair, has great ball control and can dribble the ball from one end to another. The Spaniard has good pace to recover and make tackles. With his pinpoint crosses, he can create opportunities for his teammates to score. His work ethic and dedication make him even more special.
Federico Dimarco (Inter Milan)
Humble, hardworking and determined – the Inter Milan wing-back is one of the best in the world. Today, he remains an integral piece in Simone Inzaghi’s setup and has the Nerazzurri faithful dreaming again. Given the freedom and trust to attack, Dimarco earned a reputation for himself as a high-flying wingback with a keen eye for goal. With Inzaghi’s faith and the full support of the San Siro behind him, Dimarco has finally found a place to call home.
