![]() ![]() The 25-year-old has exhibited his versatality throughout the year playing in different midfield roles.ĭ. He has relished the opportunity to captain Roma and has emerged as one of the best captains in Serie A this season. In 2021, the Italian really came into his own, showing his true colors and class. There were more than glimpses but less than concrete proof. There was a lot of utapped potential in Lorenzo Pellegrini and the promise of a great future. Pellegrini CAM – Roma FC - 89 -> 91 Rated: The Lazio man boasts the third-highest average distance covered per match in Serie A, and sits at number nine in the rankings for ball recoveries, but seven of the eight players above him are defenders. The Serbian international has been involved in more goals than any other midfielder in the league, scoring 10 and assisting eleven, but he's developed the defensive side of his game too. Milinkovic-Savic is enjoying his most productive season ever under Maurizio Sarri, and his recent form is a reminder of why he's long been linked with some of Europe's biggest clubs. Milinkovic-Savic CM – Latium - 88 -> 93 Rated: If a club is planning on securing Barella’s signature this summer, it will cost a pretty penny, as he is established as one of the best players in Serie A, and a vital part of Inter’s team. He has also shown to be incredibly good at shooting from distance, and is capable of playing as a 10, or as a box-to-box midfielder, due to his versatility as a playmaker and as an energetic battler. A product of the Cagliari youth academy, Barella excels in quality passing and is more than capable of bringing the ball forward from midfield. He was unable to show his abilities on the world stage due to being suspended for both legs of Inter's Champions League defeat to Liverpool but in the league he's constantly showing why he has been linked with moves to Liverpool in the summer. Nicolo Barella isn't just one of the best young players in Italy, he's up there with the best midfielders in world football. The defending champion is still trying to catch Milan, who's sitting at the top of the table with a 2 point gap with 2 matchdays left while writing this and Inter needs Skriniar in top form to do so. Skriniar joined Inter in 2017 from Serie A side Sampdoria Genoa and has gradually grown into one of the best defenders in Italian top-flight football. Milan Skriniar, who formed an integral part of Conte's 2020/21 Serie A winning Inter Milan side, has been on the radar of multiple Premier League clubs over the past couple of seasons and maintained his great form this campaign. The mountainous defender, nicknamed ‘K2’, has quite simply mastered his position better than any other player in the league – and better than most defenders in the world. In the 2021-22 season, he has won 18 tackles, out of which 16 have come on the defensive third of the pitch. His tackling against dribbling players has been a delight to watch. With his aggression, effective tackling and aerial abilities, Koulibaly has a very dominant presence at the back. The Senegalese centre-back is arguably one of the best defenders in Serie A right now. ![]() It is surprising how Kalidou Koulibaly is still playing for Napoli and not for one of the top European clubs. That has continued this season, with Hernandez producing four goals and six assists and continuing to surge through the middle of the pitch at will when given a chance, but the 24-year-old has worked on the defensive side of his game too under Pioli and surely is among the top 5 full-backs in world football. ![]() ![]() Hernandez’s bombing runs from left-back have become a trademark of Stefano Pioli’s Milan side, with the Frenchman earning a well-deserved reputation as one of the best attacking full-backs in the business. He even notched an assist against Sampdoria in February, while his clean sheet per game percentage of 41% is the best in the division among goalkeepers with more than four appearances. The Frenchman has had a hugely impressive debut season in Italy since arriving from Lille, keeping 15 clean sheets in 36 Serie A games, including four in a row recently to help the Rossoneri cling on to top spot. Gianluigi who? Perhaps the greatest compliment that can be paid to to Mike Maignan is that there has been very little talk of Gigi Donnarumma around Milan since the Italy goalkeeper departed for PSG last summer.
