#3 Cristiano Ronaldo
Cristiano Ronaldo made a decision that stun the football world at the end of last season as he left Real Madrid for Juventus.
After enduring a difficult start to life in Turin, the Portuguese finally set in and went on to score 21 goals in 31 appearances for the Bianconeri in the Serie A. The 34-year-old lifted the Scudetto and won the MVP of the year award in his debut season in Italy.
The king of UEFA Champions League nights was brought on board to end Juve's UCL drought. Although the Old Lady were eliminated in the quarter finals, Ronaldo was hardly to blame. The Portuguese' performances against Atletico and Manchester United were just scintillating. Against the Rojiblancos, he overturned the tie all by himself as he scored an amazing hat-trick that sent Juve into the last eight. Yet, despite his best efforts, Juve were knocked out by Ajax as his goals were not enough to save them.
Ronaldo's chances were boosted as he led his side into winning the UEFA Nations League. He sealed a berth for his national side in the finals after scoring a worldly hat-trick against Switzerland as he rolled back the days and led his side's attack against Virgil van Dijk's Netherlands to emerge triumphant.
