description: "A left-back who attacked like a winger and struck free kicks that bent against physics. That 40-yard swerve against France in 1997 still gets replayed, but eleven years at Real Madrid — three Champions Leagues, 584 matches, 71 goals from defence — made him the template for every modern fullback who forgets to stay back."

bio: |
  Roberto Carlos da Silva Rocha was born 10 April 1973 and started in Brazil as a forward before shifting to left-back, a position he redefined. He joined Real Madrid from Inter Milan in 1996 and stayed eleven seasons, winning four La Liga titles and three Champions Leagues across 584 appearances. For Brazil, he debuted in 1992 and played three World Cups — runner-up in 1998, champion in 2002 — earning 125 caps and a place in the FIFA World Cup Dream Team. He was runner-up for World Player of the Year in 1997 and the Ballon d'Or in 2002. He retired in 2012 with over 1,100 career appearances, then moved into management in Turkey and India, briefly coming out of retirement as player-manager of Delhi Dynamos in 2015.
