Defender: Diego Godin (Atletico Madrid)
Trending
It is safe to say that Diego Godin is the best defender in the World at present. Just like Jan Oblak, Diego Godin is a vital part of Atletico Madrid’s defence. In the 30 games, he has played for Atletico in La Liga this season, they have conceded only 11 goals.
According to Diego Simeone, Godin is one of the most important players in his squad, which is evident by the Uruguayan International’s numbers this season. Godin is one of the main reasons why Atletico Madrid have the best defence in Spain and arguably the best in Europe.
In the whole season, Godin has 101 interceptions in 31 matches and adding to that, he has 163 clearances this season at an average of 5.26 per game, which is astonishing.
With Atletico Madrid playing the UEFA Champions League finals against Real Madrid later this month, Godin will look to complete the unfinished job from the same match a couple of years ago.
