Costel Aliaga

This energetic Spanish center-back turns the defense into an impenetrable wall with his incredible leap and lightning-fast blocks, even if his stamina occasionally deserts him in the dying minutes. He finds his focus before every match by reverently dusting the opponent’s corner flags with his own personal duster, a bizarre ritual that always leaves his teammates shaking their heads in amusement. Despite his struggles to maintain pace over the full distance, he remains an absolute force to be reckoned with.
