Maximilian Eggestein

Maximilian Eggestein is a connoisseur's footballer, the type I always find myself rooting for. A Hanover-born defensive midfielder now anchoring SC Freiburg, he isn't a flashy goal-getter but the quiet engine who wins the ball, recycles possession and holds the shape together. At 181 cm he competes well physically and reads the game with maturity. I like that he comes from a footballing family, with his brother Johannes also turning pro. Players like him rarely top highlight reels, yet they are exactly what makes a well-run side tick. To me, that dependable graft deserves a lot more credit than it usually gets.
