5 in-form players that might not win the Ballon d'Or this year

#2 Mohamed Salah

The attacker was one of the most impressive performers on the planet last season

The English Premier League witnessed the explosive rise of another superstar last season when Egyptian winger Mohamed Salah left Roma to join Liverpool and quickly established himself in the division - scoring plenty of goals, breaking records upon records and shocking football fans and pundits alike with his impressive performances.

The attacker bagged an incredible 32 goals and 11 assists in the Premier League last term, ending up as the top scorer of the division as well as claiming both the PFA and FWA Player Of The Year awards. He also led Liverpool to the final of the UEFA Champions League for the first time in over 10 years, scoring an impressive 10 goals in the tournament as well as finishing the campaign with 43 goals and 16 assists in all competitions.

By virtue of his unbelievable performances, the winger has also emerged as a contender for the Ballon d'Or award this term. However, having failed to win any major trophy both at the club and international levels, Salah could also miss out on the prestigious prize this year.
