Top 10 best young defenders in Europe: Man United star is the best according to study

4= Marquinhos (Paris Saint-Germain)

The Brazilian has made 23 appearances this season for Laurent Blanc’s men, who are three points clear at the top of Ligue 1 with just three games to go. His appearance in the Coupe de la Ligue final this year was his 34th consecutive game without defeat for the side.

3) Raphael Varane (Real Madrid)

Carlo Ancelotti’s apparent preference to play Sergio Ramos and Pepe at centre-back has seen the talented Frenchman’s performances limited to 20 starts in La Liga this season, with another five games coming from the bench, largely due to the other two spending time out of the side injured. If the situation carries on, it would not be a surprise to see the 22-year-old decide to move on sooner rather than later.
