Top 10 set-piece takers in Europe

#3 Miralem Pjanic

Pjanic is one of the most underrated players in the impressive Juventus squad

Bought by Juventus as a replacement for Paul Pogba, 27-year-old Miralem Pjanic has quickly settled into his role as the chief playmaker in this very impressive Juventus side. Gifted with amazing technical ability, playmaking skills and tactical versatility, Pjanic is perhaps best known for his incredible set-piece taking ability.

Described by the legendary Juninho as the best free-kick taker in the world in 2015, Pjanic has scored some absolute beauties for both his club and national sides in the last few years. Not only is he known for his accurate bending direct free-kicks, he is also renowned for delivering questioning balls into the box from anywhere on the pitch.

A true dead ball specialist, Allegri will be hoping that the playmaker continues his good performances in the 2017/18 season.
