Christiano Ronaldo


Cristiano Ronaldo is the most expensive player on this list, but he's also one of the best. He scored two goals for Portugal in its 4-2 victory over Morocco. One goal was from a penalty kick, and another came from his head. Although he's 31 years old, Cristiano has shown no signs of slowing down and could be a force to be reckoned with for years to come.

Lionel Messi


Since he was a child, Lionel Messi has been playing soccer. Born on October 24th, 1987, he was born and raised in Rosario, Argentina. At just four years old, he had already joined a youth team called Newell's Old Boys. He played there until his family moved to Barcelona when he was 13 years old. From then on, Messi became part of the famous FC Barcelona football club and also met his best friend and teammate, Cesc Fabregas. In 2005 at age 18 and with many accolades to his name, Messi signed with FC Barcelona for a fee of $27 million.

Neymar da Silva Santos Júnior


Neymar is a Brazilian professional footballer who plays as a forward for the Spanish club FC Barcelona and the Brazil national team. Neymar has played at the international level since 2009, representing his country at three FIFA World Cups and two Copas América. He is widely considered one of the best players in the world. In 2013 and 2014, he was named by The Guardian as one of the ten most talented footballers in the world who are under-21. In December 2013, Neymar was ranked by The Guardian as the third-best player in world football. In July 2014, he came second in The Guardian's Football's Greatest 50 Living Players list.

Mohamed Salah


Salah is an Egyptian professional footballer who plays as a forward for Liverpool and the Egypt national team. He is renowned for his speed, agility, strength, and dribbling skills with both feet. Salah began his career as a youth player at El Mokawloon before joining Brøndby in 2012.



With Mbappe leading the way, France's team is one to be reckoned with and it would not be surprising if they are one of the top teams in 2022.
