Five Best Footballers In The World Right Now From Salah To Ronaldo But No Messi
- 2 years ago
Mohamed Salah and Cristiano Ronaldo up there but no place for Lionel Messi in list of five best footballers in the world right now with Erling Haaland, Robert Lewandowski and N’Golo Kante all among the elite
Debate has been raging over who the best player in the world right now is.
There are quite a few staking their claim for the position of no.1 and long gone is the era where Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo were the top two by a distance.
The pair were in a two-horse race for the Ballon d’Or each season for a decade before Luka Modric broke their streak in 2018.
This year the race is wide open with the likes of Mohamed Salah, Robert Lewandowski, Jorginho, Erling Haaland all up there with Ronaldo and Messi for the prize.
That prize looks on who has been in the best over the whole calendar year, but who is the best right now?
talkSPORT.com ranks the top five players in world football at the moment.
1. Mohamed Salah
Who else but Salah? It’s hard to argue that there is anyone better than the Liverpool forward.
He has scored in nine consecutive games for the club and they have not merely been tap-ins.
His return of 12 goals in just 11 games, and the manner of those performances in the biggest games, shows why he is the best right now.
2. Robert Lewandowski
The man running Salah closest for best player in the world is Lewandowski and would have won the Ballon d’Or last season had it not been cancelled.
He broke Gerd Muller’s Bundesliga goal record last season, notching 41 times in just 29 games.
3. Cristiano Ronaldo
Ronaldo’s impact at Manchester United has been much talked about and whether he has been a help or hindrance.
United may have been under par in games, but it would have been a whole lot worse without the 36-year-old.
4. Erling Haaland
There is much speculation about where Haaland will join in 2022 when his transfer release clause at Borussia Dortmund becomes active.
5. N’Golo Kante
Kante may have had his injury niggles this season, but he’s still shown why he’s the best midfielder in the world.
