Barcelona defender Jules Kounde is among the very best right-backs in world football. Having risen to prominence at Girondins de Bordeaux and then at Sevilla as a centre-back, Kounde moved to be an out and out right-back while with Barcelona and he has shone in the last couple of years as an excellent defender that is also now capable of getting forward, helping out Lamine Yamal at club level and now with the chance to do the same for either Michael Olise or Desire Doue on the international stage.
