Milan Skriniar has developed into one the most coveted central defenders in Europe since joining Inter Milan on a reported €20 million fees from Sampdoria in the summer. His impressive performance at the heart of Inter Milan defence has seen him being linked with moves away from the San Siro to European elite teams like Manchester United, Barcelona and Real Madrid.

The Slovakian has been part of an impressive Inter Milan defence that has conceded only 22 goals in 33 Serie-A matches - this being the second best defence in the division behind leaders Juventus who have conceded only 19 goals.

Skriniar has shown maturity beyond his age averaging 7 defensive actions per game, winning 50% aerial duels and 41% tackles. The youngster's rating shows that he has been the best Inter Milan player this season averaging an astonishing 91% passing accuracy and chipping in with 4 goals in the process.

At 23 years, Skriniar glory days are still ahead of him and could run the show at Anfield for the next decade.
