Ramires is another midfielder who played a starring role in Chelsea’s Champions League winning campaign. He famously scored in the semifinal against Barcelona at Nou Camp to put Chelsea ahead on away goals despite being a man down.

The Brazilian midfielder joined Chelsea from Benfica before the likes of David Luiz and Nemanja Matic followed suit.

Ramires was with Chelsea for five and a half seasons playing 246 games scoring 33 goals. During his stint with Chelsea, he won the Premier League, FA Cup, League Cup, Champions League, and Europa League before leaving in January 2016.

The 31-year-old has been with Jiangsu Suning since and has scored 17 goals in 71 games for them.
