The left-back position is somewhat neglected in the grand scheme of things, which is unfortunate. Today, we will dedicate a top five ranking of the Premier League’s best left-backs; they all deserve recognition.
Ben Chilwell, Tyrick Mitchell, and Rico Henry, among others, were left out of our final five selections, which was a difficult task.
So, let’s take a look at the five best left-backs in the Premier League this season, as well as the players who have been left on the bench.
5. Pervis Estupinan
This season, Brighton has been phenomenal in the Premier League. Following the hiring of Roberto De Zerbi, they have not lost any momentum despite the departure of Graham Potter.
Pervis Estupinan, the Seagulls’ starting left back, is one of the best players in the league this year.
The Ecuadorian international, a strong fullback who excels in both attack and defense, has recorded six assists in all competitions this season.
4. Lucas Digne
Since his arrival in the Premier League, Lucas Digne has been a controversial figure among commentators. Some view him as a liability, while others view him as a formidable offensive threat.
Digne is one of the best attacking fullbacks in the Premier League, despite not being the best defender. The Frenchman has amassed an impressive 22 assists during his time in the Premier League
The 29-year-old has also played for Everton, PSG, and Barcelona outside of Aston Villa. In addition, he has 46 caps for his home country of France
3. Oleksandr Zinchenko
