Virgil Juarez

This American wingback is a near-impenetrable defensive wall, combining explosive speed with a clinical defensive IQ that offsets his notable lack of aggression. He still remembers how, as a youngster, he stood motionless on the pitch for ten minutes to convince an opponent he was just a light pole before snatching the ball without any effort. While his heading is an absolute disaster, the sheer elegance of his slide tackles makes every interception feel like a piece of art.
