#4 Johan Cruyff
Dutch football is incomplete without Cruyff. He is next on the list with three Ballon D’ors on his side with two clubs. Regarded as one of the most complete footballers ever, he was voted as the European player of the century in 1999.
His first Ballon D’or came in the year 1971 with Ajax when he not only won the Dutch but was also the European Player of the year award. He was the highest scorer in Eredivisie and won the European Cup too with Ajax.
During the next summer, he was transferred to Barcelona with a massive transfer fee. He helped Barcelona win their first La Liga trophy since 1960 and in the process he helped the team defeat arch rivals Real Madrid 5-0. He also scored the famous ‘phantom goal’ with his right heel and went on to win Ballon D’or in 1973. His final award came in 1974 in the next year when he again won the La Liga with Barcelona.
