#9 Sime Vrsaljko (Inter Milan)
Vrsaljko is another man who it was a surprise to see move in the summer. The Croat had an excellent World Cup and was one of his side’s top performers in their run to the World Cup Final. You would have thought that he would have been right up Diego Simeone’s street, given his ability to defend, and the calmness and composure he has in possession.
This was not to be, however, and he was loaned out to Simeone’s former club, Inter Milan. He wasn’t always a first choice selection at Atletico, competing with Juanfran for his position at right back. However, Juanfran is now 33 and approaching the end of his career, while Vrsaljko looks like he is only getting better at 26. There is a chance that he returns to Atletico at the end of his loan spell, but Inter have an option to buy as part of the loan deal. Expect them to take this, because Vrsaljko is already one of the top full backs in the world, and he will only get better in the coming years.
