Last season, Barak played for Verona on loan. Then the Czech finally left Udinese and moved to Verona. As it turned out, not in vain. The 27-year-old midfielder has made 29 Serie A appearances this campaign, scoring 11 goals and providing 4 assists. These are the best performance figures in his career. Together with Giovanni Simeone, Barak helps Verona to stay in the middle of the Italian championship standings.

It should also be pointed out that Barak was a player, that attracted the interest of punters. Accordingly, a lot of players placed bets on him, when Verona played and it was not unexpected. Based on the performance, a lot of players are the subject of bookmakers’ interests. If you are a lover of gambling you can check the Play Amo website and try out different games.

Dimitri Payet

Marseille are performing well under Jorge Sampaoli. This season, they have reached the semi-finals of the Conference. The 35-year-old midfielder has made 31 appearances in Ligue 1 this campaign, tallying 12 goals and 11 assists. The Frenchman scored more only in the 2010/11 season (13 goals), playing for Saint-Etienne. The Marseille midfielder is one of the top five assists in the Ligue 1 and ranks 6th in the league in the goal + pass system. Payet will be useful to Marseille next season, despite his age.

Mario Pasalic

Pasalic changed many clubs but found himself at Atalanta, and now he is having the best season of his career. The 27-year-old midfielder has played 36 games this season, scoring 13 goals and 6 assists. Pasalic is the top scorer of Atalanta, ahead of Duvan Zapata (10 goals) and Luis Muriel (9 goals). It’s a pity that the player’s bright performances are overshadowed by Atalanta’s dull season.

Kevin De Bruyne

De Bruyne has been one of the best players in Manchester City and the entire Premier League for many years in a row. In the current campaign, the Belgian also took the title of the city’s top scorer. This season, the 30-year-old midfielder has made 30 appearances in the Premier League, scoring 15 goals and 7 assists. This is the best indicator in the career of a footballer in terms of goals scored. De Bruyne is one of the top five scorers in the Premier League. For sure, after the transfer of Erling Haaland to Manchester City, the Belgian will again focus on assists.

Christopher Nkunku

Nkunku had a very good season. Together with Domenico Tedesco, the Frenchman helped Leipzig get out of the middle of the Bundesliga standings and reach the Champions League. Christopher is the most prolific midfielder in the top 5 leagues. In the already completed German championship draw, the 24-year-old midfielder played 34 matches, scored 20 goals and distributed 13 assists. In terms of the number of assists, he was second only to Thomas Muller, and in the goal + pass system, he was second only to Robert Lewandowski. Nkunku was voted Bundesliga Player of the Season and attracted the attention of many clubs. Such a player will definitely make the Bundesliga more attractive, and Leipzig more competitive.
