The Champions League is the pinnacle of club football and competing here revolves around the entire structure of a player's career. Last season, we saw big names pop up like Antony, Eduardo Camavinga and Sebastian Haller. This season, many new names are eager to know themselves in the football world.
Let's take a look at the Top 6 main catchers in the Champions League 2022-23 that are waiting to become the new fever of the world football village.
*Top 6 players who can debut in the UEFA Champions League 2022-23 including Marc Cucurella
6 Gleison Bremer (Juventus)
Gleison Bremer is one of many new Juventus signings this summer. He is a typical Brazilian striker with excellent technique and an intimidating physique. Although he was not in Juventus' plans at the start of the transfer window, the departure of Matthijs de Ligt prompted them to choose him. Having settled into Allegri's setup, he hopes to have an impressive debut season in the Champions League.
5. Nico Scholtterbeck (Borussia Dortmund)
Nico Scholtterbeck is another centre-back who will start his first season in the Champions League. The German centre-back was one of the rising stars in the Bundesliga last season. He made 38 appearances for SC Freiburg and stood out against the big teams with spirited performances. Schlotterbeck is also hunting for a place in Germany's squad for the World Cup and the Champions League is the ideal platform to prove his worth.
4. Marc Cucurella (Chelsea)
Marc Cucurella's transfer story is one of the most surprising in the UK transfer window. He has been pursued by Manchester City and Chelsea after impressing in Brighton's left wing last season. Chelsea eventually signed the Spaniard, but the British media called the transfer a stretch. He has a key point to prove this season and with Ben Chilwell also on the team, Cucurella could get his best chance to prove himself in the Champions League.
3. Florian Wirtz (Bayer Leverkusen)
Florian Wirtz had a special season in 2021-22. The German attacking midfielder has major clubs vying for his signature and his performances in the Champions League this season are likely to push his case further. He scored 7 goals last season and has 10 assists in the Bundesliga to end a stellar season.
2. Raphinha (FC Barcelona)
Raphinha has been one of FC Barcelona's big purchases this season. The Brazilian winger turned down Chelsea for Barcelona and will prove he made the right decision. Despite his experience in the Premier League and internationally, the Champions League will be the ultimate test for him.
1. Aurelien Tchouameni (Real Madrid)
Real Madrid have signed Aurelien Tchouameni as a backup for Casemiro and as a long-term prospect. However, the situation has now changed and with the departure of the Brazilian player, he will have a starting place this season. With the high price tag associated with the name, everyone will focus on Tchouameni's performance. Real Madrid will defend the Champions League and Tchouameni will be key to their aspirations.
