#27 David Alaba

In terms of versatility, nobody trumps Austrian Alaba. Although primarily a left-back, the Bayern Munich player has played in practically every position you can think of, outlining just how physically adept he is, as well as reiterating that he’s a team player through-and-through.
Last season Alaba maintained an average pass completion of 92%, despite venturing forwards regularly, meanwhile making an average of three defensive actions per game. This campaign, he has created the second most chances at the club (23), just one shy of leader Thomas Müller (24). It’s perfectly understandable therefore to comprehend why he’s become the subject of interest from numerous clubs, not least Manchester United.
His price-tag would undoubtedly be hefty though, given that he is only 24-years-old and has sought success at the highest level with Bayern Munich, winning the Champions League with the Bavarians in 2013. Naturally, there’s room for improvement, especially when it comes to the attacking side of his game, while he again has been limited to success with one club but the Austrian has plenty of time left to savour victory elsewhere across the continent.
