Top 4 centre backs in the Premier League at the moment

#3 Harry Maguire

Leicester City's English defender, Harry Maguire, has started in all eleven of their Premier League games, and he has defended with real authority and presence of mind. Manager Claude Puel trusts him completely, and backs him to the hilt.

Maguire is also a threat in front of goal, having scored 2 goals already this season. He has picked up a few yellow cards too for his team, but that just shows Maguire is willing to take one for the team whenever the occasion arises.

Maguire had a good showing in the World Cup held in Russia this year, and has carried on that form to the Premier League. Leicester have conceded a lot of goals this season, but none of them has been a direct result of mistakes made by their number 15.
