Top 10 footballers in the world right now

#3 Kylian Mbappe

Kylian Mbappe

And making our top three is the French wizard - Kylian Mbappe. Mbappe has gone from strength to strength since breaking on the scene as a young teenage sensation at As Monaco. At the age of 20, the youngster has won the World Cup, scored a goal in the World Cup final, named as the best young player in the World cup and has won the French league with both PSG and As Monaco.

Mbappe is the most coveted youngster in the world right now. His lightning pace and acceleration sets fear in the hearts of the opposition defenders. He uses his frightening pace to good effect having completed 2.3 dribbles per game this season. Mbappe’s decision making in the final third sets him apart from any other player at his age.

The Frenchman is deadly in front of goal and rarely misses an opportunity to get his name on the scoresheet. He has scored a staggering 39 goals and notched 11 assists in 49 appearances in all competitions this season. Many have earmarked Mbappe as a future Ballon d'Or winner.

With all due respect to the French league, Mbappe might have to move to a big club in the future to truly cement his status as one of the best players in the world. And if and when that happens, there will be no shortage of potential suitors for the purchase of the freakish talents that Kyliann Mbappe possesses.
