Here we run through the best rated XI from Serie A in April and reveal the top rated players from this side.
5. Roberto Gagliardini (Inter) - 7.75 rating
Two of the five goals Roberto Gagliardini has scored this season came in April, with the midfielder putting in a man of the match display as he netted twice in Inter’s 4-0 win at Genoa. Eight tackles highlighted his influence off the ball, while four successful dribbles and two key passes shone light on his impressive ability on it.
4. Andrea Consigli (Sassuolo) - 7.76 rating
Sassuolo shotstopper Andrea Consigli earned two WhoScored man of the match awards last month, those coming in wins over Chievo and Fiorentina. The 32-year-old made 18 saves in April, while no goalkeeper kept more clean sheets than Consigli (3) to help land a WhoScored rating of 7.76.
3. Riccardo Orsolini (Bologna) - 7.85 rating
One of the hottest prospects in Italy, Riccardo Orsolini proved why with a series of fine performances in April. Indeed, the Bologna attacker had a direct hand in three goals in five league outings, scoring three times, while only Jeremie Boga (20) completed more dribbles than the 22-year-old (18) as he returned a WhoScored rating of 7.85.

2. Duvan Zapata (Atalanta) - 7.83 rating
Atalanta enjoyed a memorable April as they secured their Coppa Italia final berth. It was another fine month for top scorer Duvan Zapata, who scored two and assisted two in his four league outings as they chase a top four finish. With 14 key passes and seven successful dribbles to his name, Zapata was good value for his inclusion in this XI as he landed a WhoScored rating of 7.83.
1. Josip Ilicic (Atalanta) - 8.18 rating
It’s an Atalanta one-two this month and after teammate Alejandro Gomez earned the individual award last month, forward Josip Ilicic tops the pile in April. The Slovenian was the only outfield player to land a perfect 10 rating in a Serie A match last month, achieving the feat against Bologna, as he scored two and assisted one to contribute towards a fine average WhoScored rating of 8.18 in April.
