5 Best Right-Backs in the World this season

#3 Łukasz Piszczek (Poland, Borussia Dortmund)

Borussia Dortmund v Club Brugge - UEFA Champions League Group A

The veteran right-back is 33 years old now but is still going strong. Piszczek might have lost a yard of pace, but he still is full of running and has been in fine form for his club this season. He is currently out with a heel injury and has been sidelined for over a month now. But up until his injury, Piszczek was having a great season.

The Polish right-back is a strong defender who is good in the air and is an expert tackler. He is also good at intercepting the play and can press the opposition pretty well. Piszczek has a tendency to play short passes and build play from the deep. He is quite decent with the ball at his feet and is averaging around 55 passes per game this season, with almost 82% completion rate.

Piszczek has also been impressive in the attacking third and has thus far scored 1 and set up 6 goals from 23 games in all competitions.
