After an impressive 5-year spell with Club Brugge, Thomas Meunier made the move to Ligue 1 to join Paris Saint-Germain in the summer of 2016. He soon turned out to be a fine acquisition, even chipping in 2 goals from 36 appearances in his first season. Since then, Meunier has developed into one of the best attack-minded full-backs in the world.

The Belgian was also impressive in the 2018 FIFA World Cup, helping his nation finish third in the tournament. He was linked to a host of clubs this summer but expressed his desire to stay on at the French clun. However, Meunier has entered the final year of his stay and unless PSG agreed to extend his contract, the Belgian will become a free agent next summer.
Still only 28-years-old right now, Meunier has the ability to play at the highest level in Europe and could effortlessly slide into the starting eleven of most European clubs. It remains to be seen if PSG allow him to leave for free next summer.

Inspired by Diego Maradona, Deepungsu played as an attacking midfielder for his local club at subdivision level in his initial years and scored an important goal or two. However, his all-time favorite footballer is Lionel Messi, and evidently, he feels Argentina's glory in 2022 is his favorite FIFA World Cup moment for fulfilling his long-standing dream. He is also an ardent East Bengal fan.
Deepungsu has been a Manchester United supporter since the year 2000. Unsurprisingly, his favorite manager is Sir Alex Ferguson and the Scotsman helped him get through some of the toughest days of his life. Like the fiery Scot, Deepungsu also leaves no stone unturned when it comes to accuracy in articles and only relies on credible sources.
Despite believing in Kylian Mbappe and Erling Haaland to create an iconic rivalry, Deepungsu reckons no one can match the longevity of Messi and Ronaldo. He spends his leisure time writing about life on his blog, reading books, and playing the guitar.
