3 Best center-backs in world football on current form

#3 Kalidou Koulibaly (SEN/ Napoli)

SSC Napoli v Paris Saint-Germain - UEFA Champions League Group C

How many defenders are out there in world football who can say that they dominated PSG and Liverpool's attacking players? Only one, Napoli's Senegalese centre-back Koulibaly has been so good that there is hardly any major European team who are not scouting him at this moment.

Against PSG's and Liverpool's attacking riches which consists of world-class players like Neymar, Mbappe, Cavani, Di Maria, Salah, Firmino and Mane he hardly put a foot wrong. He has probably been the reason behind Napoli on top of their Champions League group of Death.

He is Seria A's best defender right now and when we say that, remember Chiellini and Bonucci still play in Seria A. Barcelona, Real Madrid, Manchester United, Chelsea all are highly interested in Napoli's centre-back. He has been valued by Napoli at around 90 million Pounds.

So if any bid to be accepted by the Italian club, it better be a world record fee for a centre-back to even be considered by Napoli. Koulibaly has an average rating of 7.08 in Seria A according to WhoScored.com. He has 4.3 average clearance, 0.9 shots blocked and 0.8 passed blocked in Seria A this season and averages 1.5 interceptions and 1.8 tackles every game.

Notable Mention- Arguably Man City's best player this season and reason behind their defensive record is Aymeric Laporte. If he is not the best centre-back in the world right now, he is for sure one of the best.
