6. Javier Zanetti

The retired full-back Javier Zanetti was one of the best defenders in the world for 20 years. While Zanetti boasts impressive hair (fans and media alike like to chide on him), don’t let the locks fool you, he’s got the hardware to match. Five Serie A titles, four Coppa Italias, four Supercoppa Italias, one Champions League, one UEFA Cup (now Europa League) and one club World Cup from his time at Inter. As a player, he has been named in FIFA’s top 125 players. Hair aside, tough to argue that he doesn’t deserve a spot on the list.
