Kozo Osada

With electric speed and phenomenal ball control, this Japanese midfield star dominates the pitch, even though his heading remains a liability. He religiously prepares for matches by balancing a raw egg yolk on his nose in the dressing room, a bizarre ritual that leaves his teammates howling with laughter. Despite his flamboyant personality, he remains unstoppable as long as his eccentric pre-match routine goes off without a crack.
