De la Cruz is fast, energetic and incredibly talented.

His strong performances for Ecuador led to him becoming Scottish side Hibernian's record signing when he moved there for £750,000.

He is strong defensively but it is moving up in his wing back position where he is at his most prolific.

He was part of the Copa America XI and has notched up some sensational strikes for both club and country.

A 35-yard piledriver against Brazil in qualifying was arguably his best to date.
