Fernando Barroso

This charismatic Spanish midfielder commands the pitch with electrifying aggression and a gravity-defying vertical leap that more than compensates for his modest acceleration. Legend has it that as a boy, he mastered his leaping ability by vaulting over barbed-wire fences to pilfer oranges, forging the fearless and tenacious spirit he carries today. With velvet-smooth close control, he runs the engine room with the poise of a conductor who thrives on the chaos of a packed stadium.
