Top 5 attacking full-backs in world football

#1 Dani Alves (Paris Saint-Germain, Brazil)

Alves has kept out Belgian international Thomas Meunier from the PSG first team

He may be older now, but Alves has remarkably remained a powerful presence from right back. Perhaps the best fullback of the last decade, Alves has thankfully sustained his career after leaving Barcelona in 2016: he spent last season helping Juventus to the Champions League final; this season he's assisted PSG's frightening front trio of Neymar, Edinson Cavani, and Kylian Mbappe as they've become the toast of Europe.

His natural athleticism has enabled him to continue supporting the play in attack each game, and his experience and skill have helped the exciting young talent Mbappe excellently on the right wing.

Alves has also contributed memorable goals and assists, including an unstoppable shot against Celtic in the UEFA Champions League group stages.

Perhaps this will be his final year at the highest level, but what speaks loudest about Alves as a player is the fact that he can continue assisting Kylian Mbappe in attack just like he did with Lionel Messi for years at Barcelona.

Truly astonishing.
