Italy 
The 31-year-old attacking full-back is arguably the best in his position in world football and has played for two of the most successful clubs around, Juventus and Barcelona, but it was at Bari where he made his name, becoming the first player to be capped by Italy for 50 years while playing for the unfashionable club.
Then-Juve boss Carlo Ancelotti splashed out around 15million euros on his signature in 1999 and since then he has not looked back, racking up over 200 appearances for the 'Old Lady' and winning the Scudetto four times, although two of those were stripped from the club following a match-fixing scandal.
And when Juve were relegated for their part in the scandal, unlike international team-mates such as Gianluigi Buffon and Alessandro Del Piero, Zambrotta decided to leave Turin to join European champions Barcelona.
By his own admission, his performances in Catalonia, like the club's overall, have been sub-standard, and he has been linked with a move back to Italy, with AC Milan reportedly tracking him.
Zambrotta has bad memories of European Championships, having been sent-off against Holland in the last four of Euro 2000 and missing out on a place in the final, while Italy were eliminated at the group stage in 2004, although the Como-born defender was one of the few to emerge with his head held high.
He is likely to be deployed at right-back, but his ability to play on the left of defence and in midfield means he is a hugely important figure for boss Roberto Donadoni.
