Who will win vote as Fifa’s best soccer player in world in 2018 out of 10 nominees?
France World Cup winner Kylian Mbappé, tournament top-scorer Harry Kane of England, and Liverpool and Egypt forward Mohamed Salah all shortlisted
Soccer’s world governing body, Fifa, has announced a shortlist of 10 candidates for The Best Fifa Men’s Player for 2018 – just weeks after France won the Fifa World Cup 2018 in Russia.
The winner of the award, which attempts to recognise the “extraordinary achievements” of soccer players over the past season, will be announced on September 24 at a ceremony held in London.
The winner will be decided by votes taken from the following four groups, with equal weighting (25 per cent) given to each:
The captains of all national soccer teams
The head coaches of all national teams
A fan ballot that the public can participate in
A group of about 200 members of the international media
In no particular order, here are the 10 soccer internationals in with a chance of winning this year’s award.
Antoine Griezmann , forward – Atletico Madrid and France
