Brian Laudrup

Brian Laudrup is one of those players who makes you feel like football is genuinely beautiful — not just effective, but artistic. Growing up in a footballing family (his brother Michael was no slouch either), Brian carved out his own legacy at clubs like Rangers, where he was utterly unplayable in the mid-1990s, gliding past defenders as if they were standing still. His work with Denmark's 1992 European Championship-winning squad — one of the great tournament upsets in history — showed he could deliver on the biggest stages too. At 185 cm he had the frame of a striker but the vision and movement of a true winger, which made him almost impossible to mark. He retired earlier than fans wanted, but what he gave us while he was out there was genuinely special.
