10 Top Players Entering The Final Year Of Their Contracts
7. Diego Godin (Atlético Madrid)
One of the best defenders in the world, Uruguay and Atlético Madrid's Diego Godin is another player entering the final year of his contract. Rumours have gone back-and-forth regarding the defender, with some reports saying he might make a transfer and others saying he's keen on extending his contract.
Atlético do seem to have the perfect heir to Godin all lined up in the form of his fellow countryman José Giménez, but could be tempted to hang on to their talismanic defender for another year or two. Despite being 32 and approaching the final years of his top tier career, Godin is arguably the most consistent centre back around and has been a fantastic big game player for Atlético over the years.
As he's in the final year of his contract, AS has revealed that Godin could currently be bought out for the bargain price of just €20 million. He has been linked with Juventus, Manchester City, Chelsea, PSG, and various other European giants over the years and would improve almost any side.
