3. Thiago Motta
Thiago Motta’s CV as impressive as it gets; the former midfielder played for the likes of Barcelona, Atletico Madrid, Inter Milan and PSG in his twilight years. An enforcer blessed with good vision and passing skills, Motta represented Brazil on two occasions in 2003.
However, having not received an international call-up for Brazil in the next eight years, he decided to accept a call from Italy. Motta went on to earn 23 caps for the Azzuri later.
