#2 Alessandro Del Piero (Juventus, 1993 to 2012)
Alessandro Del Piero was one of the most comprehensive players in European history. You’d have to wait a few decades before you saw a player as versatile in his style, as skilled with the ball and as dedicated as the World Cup winner.
He would provide the creativity making the eye-opening assists, score the flashiest goals, just drawing your amazement and respect for the way he virtually played his heart and soul out on the field for the Bianconeri.
Devotion is a scarce tendency to come across in the modern world. I personally doubt there will ever be another man who unconditionally loved the Old Lady of Turin as much, a man who rejoiced every time he put on the black and white shirt of Juventus.
Such is his dedication towards the side from Italy that he didn't leave the club's side when they were relegated in the 2005-06 on charges of match-fixing during the infamous 'Calciopoli' scandal. He fought with the team in the Serie B in the 2006-07 season returning the team to the top flight almost instantly.
Superlatives are no longer valid for him. Alessandro Del Piero is a hero.
