4. Leonardo Bonucci

Leonardo Bonucci has been the heart of Juventus defence. Bonucci is considered one of the best defenders in world football. The 32-year-old has a wealth of experience of playing in Italian football and it is his expertise which has been priceless for Juventus.

The Italian is considered quite strong with his tackles and can shut out the best attacks because of his ability to keep the ball in possession. Bonucci has always excelled during aerial duels inside the box and has been effective with his set-pieces.

Bonucci has provided much-needed solidity at the back and will be a vital figure for Juventus in their defence along with Giorgio Chiellini. Bonucci has looked one of the fittest players in the side and because of his experience, Bonucci has turned out to be a tough negotiator.

Bonucci has also been a tricky player because of his ability to find the gaps in the opposition’s territory with his precise passes. The defender has also scored 3 goals this season in the Serie A.

5. Miralem Pjanic

The Bosnian has got all the qualities of a gifted midfielder and is considered technically strong. The 30-year-old offers a lot of flexibility in the Juventus midfield. Pjanic has showcased that he is capable of playing both offensively as well as defensively as he could also be used as an attacking midfielder.

Pjanic is quite intelligent when it comes to his ability to move forward by creating space through the rival’s defence and keeping the ball in possession. Pjanic has colluded well with Blaise Matuidi in the midfield. Although Pjanic has scored only 3 goals in 22 Serie A games in the ongoing season his one-touch passes have been laden with preciseness.

Pjanic has also contributed with 4 assists in the 2019-20 Serie A season. Pjanic has been a smooth operator during set-pieces which have caught the opponent’s defence totally off guard. His ability to win aerial duels has benefitted the forward line to launch counter-attacks.
