Alfredo Di Stéfano
If the great Sir Bobby Charlton describes you as the most complete footballer he has ever seen, you're destined for greatness. Of course, he was far from the only one to be entranced by the supremely talented Alfredo Di Stéfano, nicked "The Blond Arrow".
While not as flashy or technically gifted as some of his contemporaries, Di Stéfano's incredible versatility, stunning physical predispositions and leadership skills made him into one of the best players the game has ever seen.
For his on-field achievements, Di Stéfano won two Ballon d'Or awards in 1957 and 1959, as well as the first and only Super Ballon d'Or in 1989.
