Negash Worku

This Ethiopian midfielder is a flamboyant hurricane on the pitch, combining unstoppable raw strength with explosive acceleration that makes attackers look like they are standing still. Legend has it he once put in a slide tackle so thunderous during training that he unearthed the stadium turf, leaving a hole the grounds crew had to fill with sand before the next game. He dominates the air and ground with pure aggression, even if his unwavering confidence occasionally makes him forget tactical caution.
