Paris Saint-Germain have won back-to-back UEFA Champions League titles playing an excellent, free flowing and intense style of football under Luis Enrique. However, that style of football naturally puts strain on the defence and requires individual brilliance at the back to lay any platform for the enormous success that they have achieved and Willian Pacho is an absolute rock for the Parisians. A part of an incredible Ecuador defence, that conceded just five goals in CONMEBOL qualification for the FIFA World Cup, Pacho is essential for the Ecuadoreans and one of the best centre-backs in world football.
