Manchester United right-back is one of the most consistent fullbacks in the Premier League right now. A natural winger, Valencia has played the role of a right-back for quite some time. He averages 2.1 tackles per game in his last two Premier League seasons and has got better with age.

In 2017/18, he has made 31 Premier League appearances for Manchester United and was one of their best performers. The 33-year-old is a physically strong player with great stamina. His work-rate is exceptional and also possesses good pace. He rarely commits mistakes and is one of Mourinho’s reliable players.

Though the Red Devils have signed Diogo Dalot this summer, Valencia is expected to play a huge role once again at the Old Trafford.
