But what happens to Arturo Vidal? The legendary Chilean midfielder currently plays for the Colo-Colo club in his native Chile. At 37, the former Chilean international is closer to the end than the beginning of his career.

The midfielder had an incredible career where he established himself for several seasons as one of the strongest players in his position in all the clubs he played at.

At Juventus, from 2011 to 2015, he reached his peak and formed an extraordinary midfielder alongside Andrea Pirlo, Paul Pogba and Claudio Marchisio. During an intervention on the Youtube channel DavooXeneizePlusXhe said that this association was the best in the history of football.

“With me, Pogba, Pirlo and Marchisio, we formed the best midfield in the history of football, even better than Xavi-Busquets-Iniesta,” he blurted. Words which should surely provoke reactions from various observers on social networks.

A regret in the 2015 C1 final?

It is true that this midfield composed of Pirlo, Vidal, Marchisio and Pogba has delighted Italy and the Old Continent. During this period, the Turinese largely dominated on the national scene and managed to reach the final of the Champions League in the 2014/2015 edition.

A final unfortunately lost to FC Barcelona with a score of 3 goals to 1. A regret for the Old Lady? Surely, because the squad led by Max Allegri had reached a level rarely seen in Italy.
