#8 Kylian Mbappe
Paris Saint-Germain's boy wonder Kylian Mbappe will definitely be winning this award someday in the future. However, the French forward finds himself at number 8 in our power rankings list.
Mbappe has been in fine form in Ligue 1 scoring an incredible 10 goals in just 9 appearances so far. However, he has struggled to have the same impact in the UEFA Champions League where he could manage to score only 2 goals in the group stages.
The 21-year-old has the world at his feet and PSG will be hoping that he fires them to a Champions League title this season.
#7 Kevin De Bruyne
Arguably the best midfielder in world football right now, Kevin De Bruyne is undoubtedly one of Pep Guardiola's most important players. Blessed with incredible vision and passing skills, De Bruyne equalled Thierry Henry's record for most number of assists (20) in a single Premier League season during the 2019/20 campaign.
Having initially started this season slowly, the Belgian midfielder has started to show his class by putting in some world class performances in the last few matches.
With 6 assists in 9 appearances so far in the Premier League, De Bruyne is on track to have a record breaking season once again.
#6 Sergio Ramos
Real Madrid captain Sergio Ramos drops one spot from last month's rankings as he missed a few games through injury. Ever dependable and always chipping in with crucial goals, Ramos played a vital part in Real Madrid's incredible LaLiga triumph last season.
A true leader on and off the pitch for Los Blancos, Sergio Ramos is quite simply one of the best centre-backs of this generation. The 34-year-old Spaniard is a big match player and always seems to deliver when it matters the most.
With Real Madrid struggling for consistency this season, Zidane will be hoping that his captain puts up inspirational performances once again and leads Los Blancos to another LaLiga or Champions League triumph.
#5 Neymar
There is no doubting Neymar's talent and in the last few months, the Brazilian has shown the footballing world what he can be capable of when he plays at his best.
The Brazilian superstar seems to have matured a lot in the last year and he looks determined to guide PSG to the elusive Champions League title.
Fresh from a hat-trick against Istanbul Basaksehir, Neymar will be hoping to remain injury free and finally match the levels of Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo in the coming months.
