Rio Ferdinand has chosen Antoine Griezmann as the World Cup's "best defensive player", as he picked the Atletico Madrid star over Manchester United centre back Raphael Varane.
Varane will compete in the World Cup final when France take on Argentina. The Frenchman will come face to face with Lisandro Martinez, as the two defenders find themselves as the last United players left in the competition.
Regardless of the game's outcome, the Reds will be adding a World Cup winner to their ranks for the second half of the season. Erik ten Hag will be eager to reunite with his preferred defensive pair, as although Martinez and Varane are teammates on the pitch, they will put their relationship to one side on Sunday as they do everything they can to help their country get their hands on the coveted trophy.
