One of the best left-backs in the world right now, Alex Sandro joined FC Porto from Brazilian Santos in the summer transfer window of 2011.

The Brazillian international played 87 Primeira Liga games during his four years stay at the club and helped the Azuis e brancos win two Primeira Liga titles along with one Supertaça Cândido de Oliveira trophy. Sandro was also the part of O Jogo Team of the Year on two different occasions.

The 27-year old left Porto to join Juventus in 2015 and is currently among the important players for the Old Lady.

The Bicas-born defender, Danilo started his professional career with América Futebol Clube (MG) and also enjoyed a brief and successful spell with Santos before joining FC Porto in 2012.

He played 91 league games for the Portuguese giants and was regarded as one of the Primeira Liga's best full-backs during his time at the Estádio do Dragão. The Brazillian international helped the Dragões win two Primeira Liga titles before moving to Real Madrid in 2015.
