ISL 2017: Top 5 retained foreigners this season

#2 Jonatan Lucca

Jonatan is the linchpin of FC Pune City

Another Brazilian in the list, Jonatan Lucca is among the best midfielders of the ISL in its 3-year history. The 23-year-old AS Roma academy product has plied his trade for FC Goa in the second edition but was signed by Pune City in the recent edition.

Although a genuine defensive midfielder, Jonatan commanded the game for the stallions in the recent edition. The insatiable approach of this young midfielder indeed makes him the best midfielder in business and has given him the duty to orchestrate Pune City Fc's Midfield.

The former AS Roma player featured in 30 games in ISL, of which 14 were for Pune. Jonatan also has scored 3 goals, signalling his attacking intent. Along with the likes of Diego Carlos, Jonathan will be the linchpin of Pune City.
