Players to watch out for:

Nicolás Tagliafico (Lyon)

The Argentine fullback is in the form of his life this season. He has been very consistent for Lyon ever since he joined them in 2022, but this season can be considered his best one yet. Many attackers struggle against him.

He is almost unstoppable when it comes to ground duels. Tackling is another one of his attributes that makes him a world-class left back. 

Khvicha Kvaratskhelia (PSG)

The Georgian international is enjoying an incredible start to the season. Despite not finding the back of the net in Ligue 1, Kvaratskhelia has dazzled fans with his great performances. He is very versatile and can operate on both flanks with ease.

He played one of his best games of the season against Nice and gave the match-winning assist to Gonçalo Ramos.
