Who are the most outstanding midfielders in the preview? We review them.
The captain of the Mexican team for this Copa América is called Edson Omar Álvarez Velázquez. Defensive midfielder for West Ham United FC of the English Premier League, he has earned the captaincy based on great performances with the national team.
Douglas Luiz Soares de Paulo is a Brazilian footballer who plays as a midfielder for Aston Villa FC in the English Premier League. With a market value of 70 million euros, he will surely be a starter and key in Brazil.
After a difficult time at Juventus, where he aroused more criticism than admirers, Rodrigo Bentancur has found his place at Tottenham and is demonstrating his quality.
With a tireless motor and a budding nose for goal, the Uruguayan is calm and collected in possession, and played a key role in Spurs’ return to the Champions League.
If Antonio Conte stays long-term, there will be plenty of twists and turns in north London, but it looks like Bentancur has carved out a starting spot for as long as he wants.
Owner of Chelsea’s midfield, he has a constant sacrifice to recover the ball and clarity to move the ball with the aim of starting the offensive action for Ecuador.
He is the workhorse that Lionel Scaloni has, he is the player who infects, who unites the last line with the forwards. The link that Messi and Di María need for the attack. It has to be Paul, he earned the love and respect of all the fans in the country.
The Brazilian is a defensive, aggressive footballer who, despite the fact that his team is not at its best, contributes a very good game. His value is 85 million euros.
He was the figure of Fluminense to win its first Copa Libertadores in the club’s history. He spent five seasons in the Colombian league and then arrived in Brazil. Since his performance in the “Flu” he was summoned to the National Team and won the affection of all Colombians. It will be his first Copa América.
One of the few names that the coach could change, but in the last games he did not do so and continued to respect him in his place. He became a key piece in Jurgen Klopp’s Liverpool (now he will have a new coach) becoming an attacking midfielder. He is a machine that Scaloni has on the left side.
The Argentine always performs, in the midfield he is essential. He has grown significantly in recent years. He was the best young player at the World Cup in Qatar, being world champion. His value is 80 million euros.
Pajarito Valverde is currently one of the most beloved players in Madrid. He contributes a lot to the game, assists and scores goals, the same for the Uruguayan National Team. He comes from being champion of the Champions League. His value is 100 million euros.
