#3. Mohamed Salah

Salah was one of the top performers on the planet during the previous campaign

A highly talented superstar with plenty of technical skills and an incredible record in front of goal, Liverpool winger, Mohamed Salah is also one of the favourites to be listed among the final 3 contenders for the prestigious Ballon d'Or accolade this year.

The Egyptian was one of the top performers on the planet during the previous campaign, taking his game to an extraordinary level and reaching fantastic milestones following his famous transfer from Roma to Liverpool last summer.

Salah was influential as The Reds made it to the final of the UEFA Champions League for the first time in over a decade, bagging an amazing 10 goals and 5 assists as well as finishing as the top scorer in the English Premier League with a whopping 32 goals and 11 assists to his name.

Apart from winning both the PFA and FWA Player Of The Year awards for his incredible performances last term, Salah was also included among the finalists for the FIFA Player Of The Year award recently and he could as well repeat such a feat during the Ballon d'Or awards this season.
