Vinícius Júnior
Left winger · Real Madrid CF
The most effective one-v-one dribbler in Europe, and a case study in how Spanish football handles racist abuse.
Profile
Vinícius transformed from a raw dribbler into a complete forward by adding decision-making without losing directness. His public confrontation of racist abuse in Spanish stadiums forced LaLiga and the RFEF into procedural changes that reporting, including ours, continues to scrutinise.
