Salah is a legit threat to the Ronaldo-Messi dominance

The Egyptian has been a revelation since his move to Anfield and is considered as the latest threat to unseating the icons: Messi and Ronaldo.

The former Chelsea man won the PFA Player of the Year last season as he emerged as the league's top scorer with 32 goals. He also played a vital part in Liverpool's impressive run to the final of Europe's elite club competition scoring 10 goals and making 4 assists.

His tendency to shine in the big games saw him emerge as Liverpool's unlikely leader last season. He won the Champions League's Player of the Week award on three occasions along with three Player of the Month accolades in the Premier League - the most for any player in a single season.

With Liverpool's exciting run in the Champions League 2017/2018 still fresh in the memory and him being declared fit for the World Cup, Salah is perhaps the one Egland-based player with the best chance of getting his hands on the Ballon d'Or if he continues his impressive form.
