Sergio Brio

Sergio Brio is exactly the kind of player I admire most: the unglamorous spine of a great team. A 190 cm centre-back from Lecce, he anchored Juventus from the mid-1970s into the late 1980s, collecting four Serie A titles and joining the tiny club of footballers to have won every UEFA competition. Strikers get the headlines, but defenders like Brio win the trophies by erasing the other team's best player, night after night. There's a craftsman's beauty in that thankless work. To me he embodies the quiet, southern-Italian steel that holds a dynasty together.
