#1 Luca Toni
When you think of Luca Toni, one immediately thinks of that famous celebration – and goals, lots and lots of goals.
After all, at 37 years of age, he scored the most goals in the Serie A season when he was with Hellas Verona and also won the league’s golden boot with Fiorentina prior to that.
His sizeable frame and eye for goal made him a success in Germany with Bayern Munich as well, but he never plied his trade in Spain.
However, he was linked with a move to Malaga at 35 years of age after his spell with Emirati outfit Al Nasr turned out to be a failed one. It seems as if the Spanish club missed out on securing the services of a player who was still very much in his prime.
Toni was held to a harsher level of criticism than many others around him which was truly odd considering he had won the World Cup with Italy back in 2006 and was a proven goalscorer in a variety of leagues.
An adverse striker who proved himself time and again, he deserved an opportunity to make his mark on the Iberian peninsula, but considering how things eventually worked out for him at the end of his career, he probably won’t lose too much sleep over it today.
