10 best footballers in the world by assists this season

#2 Joshua Kimmich (Bayern Munich)

Kimmich continues to prove his worth at Bayern, as one of the world's best fullbacks

Over the past few seasons, Joshua Kimmich has asserted himself as one of the world's best fullbacks at Bayern Munich. Now a regular for both club and country on the international stage with Germany, the 24-year-old has shown a willingness to deliver at both ends of the pitch.

Flying forward from his right-back position, he regularly darts into the final third and creates chances for his teammates to finish - whether that be from crosses, set-piece deliveries or deft passes into feet.

With one goal and ten assists created in 1,980 Bundesliga minutes this term, he's two away from equalling last year's tally, which he eventually reached in early April.
