Ranking the top 7 left-footed footballers in the world right now

#5 Antoine Griezmann (France, Atletico Madrid)

France v Croatia - 2018 FIFA World Cup Russia Final

Griezmann has had a fine year so far - he won the Europa League 2017/18 with Atletico Madrid and the 2018 FIFA World Cup with France. He was a vital part of both of those trophy winning sides and is one of the best players in the world right now. He scored 19 goals and had 9 assists in the LaLiga last season, whereas in the Europa League he had 6 goals from 8 matches. He also scored 4 goals in the world cup and all 4 were scored with his left foot.

Griezmann likes to hold the ball and is very strong in his passing and through balls. He has a spectacular left foot and is a quick thinker who always influences the game. He can play in a various position and links very well with his forwards and the midfielders. His first touch is excellent, he is fast and he works extremely hard for his team. He is technically gifted and his left foot can unleash power as well as elegance with equal ease.

Having played into the Real Sociedad first team from their youth set-up, Griezmann has spent all of his club career in Spain, and he has embraced the Spanish culture in his game. The effervescence of the Basque region can be found in his play, as he mixes his inherent power with skills and this is what makes him one of the best left-footed footballers right now.
