The prodigiously talented Frenchman drops one spot to #3 this month. Kylian Mbappe has been touted to be the one to take over the reins from the likes of Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi in the near future and for good reason.

Mbappe continued to shine this past month, notching five more league goals to his name in four appearances in March. Now sitting on a tally of 27 goals, Mbappe is 9 goals clear of Nicolas Pepe in second place.

However, the 20-year-old failed to shine under the bright lights of the Champions League as PSG coughed up another shocker, this time against Manchester United.

Letting slip of a two-goal lead in front of shell-shocked home fans, PSG crashed out of the competition in the round of 16, with Mbappe a major culprit, having missed a couple of absolute sitters to put the game to bed.

That contributes significantly to his slide to #3.
