Alessandro Nesta is another Italian legend who graced the ISL when he joined Chennaiyin FC during the fag end of his illustrious career. Nesta's career saw him win the Champions League with AC Milan, for whom he has had quite an astonishing career.

The defender managed to rake up 99 appearances in the UCL, and showed his class time and time again just ahead of the goalkeeper. As a captain too, Nesta proved that he had what it takes to be considered a true Italian hero. His other honours include winning the 2006 FIFA World Cup with his country, an achievement which he will most likely never forget.
