#1 Alisson (Liverpool/Brazil)
The Reds' shot-stopper might not have won as many trophies as his Manchester City counterparts in the list, but he played an instrumental role in two of the biggest prizes on show - the Champions League and the Copa America.
Signed for a record fee of £66.8 million last summer, Alisson proved to be worth every penny of it. He beefed up Liverpool's backline with his stellar goalkeeping nous and registered a league-high 21 clean sheets.
His contributions in Liverpool's sixth European title is equally instrumental and undeniable. In addition to this, Alisson later went on to emulate those heroics in the Canary colours by helping Brazil to the Copa America title.
Yet again, he proved to be the safest pair of hands with five clean sheets until the final, conceding only Paulo Guerrero's penalty in the showpiece clash. However, he remained unbeaten from open play.
Alisson had done enough last season to stake a claim at the world's best goalkeeper honour, if only FIFA could bat an eyelid on this.
