RB Leipzig may be the moustache twirling villains of the Bundesliga, but for all their faults (and they are many), you can't fault their teaching.

The Red Bull project - sorry, *RasenBallsport* project - has churned out ballers like their drink churns out startlingly coloured urine and, whisper it, this Croatian defender might just be one of the best.

He may be a Zagreb native, but in play he's a Swiss Army Knife. Combining physical defending and deft ball control with one hell of a long shot on him, shown by his shot power rating.

Stick him in the middle or on the left flank and watch him fly like he's downed a can of... y'know.
