A contrasting view as third place on this list is occupied by a defender and a striker. Sergio Ramos is the third-highest active Champions League goalscorer for Los Blancos whereas young Brazilian striker Gabriel Jesus takes his place on the podium for Manchester City.

Alongside being one of the best defenders of this era, Ramos is sure to go down as one of the great leaders of the modern game. Cometh the hour cometh the man. This line is pretty apt for the Spaniard, as he has always ahowed up when his team has needed him the most.

Ramos scored a stoppage-time equaliser in the 2014 final that became the catalyst for their 10th Champions League win. He repeated the feat of scoring in the final in 2016 as well.

Despite his questionable disciplinary record on the field, no can argue his passion for the game. Ramos is also the designated penalty taker for Real Madrid since the departure of Ronaldo, so we can expect a few more goals from Los Blancos’ Mr Dependable.

Few teams can boast of a better understudy to their frontline striker than Manchester City. Despite the continued brilliance of Sergio Aguero, Gabriel Jesus has managed to establish himself and even overtake the brilliant Argentine on a few occasions.

Jesus also boasts the best minutes per goal of any City player in the history of the Champions League. The Brazilian youngster has already recorded two hattricks in his short Champions League career and will be hoping to add more against Real Madrid.
