Ranking the top 10 right backs in the world

#7 Djibril Sidibe (Monaco)

Sidibe has been a big part of Monaco's success in recent years

Sidibe was one of a number of players who made a name for themselves during Monaco’s run to the Ligue 1 title and Champions League semi-final during the 2016/17 season. A lot of those players have already left the club- Benjamin Mendy and Bernardo Silva joined Manchester City, Fabinho moved to Liverpool, Tiemoue Bakayoko joined Chelsea, and most notably, Kylian Mbappe signed for PSG.

Sidibe was one of few who stuck around, and that hasn’t been because of a lack of interest. The Frenchman, who now has a World Cup winners’ medal to his name, was linked heavily with a move to Atletico Madrid this summer. That should tell you all you need to know about the full back, because Diego Simeone is only interested in players who will improve his side defensively. Sidibe is still an excellent player going forward, and has been a real threat for Monaco is attacking areas over the last couple of years.
