Incredibly, Mo Salah was not named among the top 10 players in the world by journalists from 11 different countries in this year’s Ballon d’Or voting. For his efforts, he was named the Premier League, PFA and FWA Player of the Year and had again put himself in the reckoning to be crowned the best men’s player at the Ballon d’Or.

Incredibly, journalists from Albania, Cape Verde, Cameroon, Equatorial Guinea, Georgia, Mexico, Panama, Romania, Switzerland, Uganda and Qatar deemed the Egyptian was not among the top 10 players in the world. As for who the abovementioned countries favoured instead, Albania named Cole Palmer as the second-best player in the world, Equatorial Guinea had him fifth, and Mexico and Uganda listed him in eighth.

5 spot and Panama had the striker in ninth – his native Sweden representative did not even list him in their top 10. Salah was only deemed the best player in the world by journalists from Egypt, South Africa, Bahrain and Jordan, while Dembele was named No.
