Kostas Tsimikas, defender - Liverpool FC
Left-back Kostas Tsimikas brought title-winning and Champions League experience to Liverpool FC when he joined the club in August 2020.
The Greece international made the move to Merseyside after 86 appearances in all competitions for Olympiacos, with whom he won the domestic title in 2019-20.
It was a breakthrough year for the defender, including 46 games – 12 in the Champions League – as his side reclaimed the Greek Super League.
