5 of the most powerful footballers in the world

Manchester City v FC Basel - UEFA Champions League Round of 16: Second Leg
Yaya Toure in act

#1 Adebayo Akinfenwa

Tottenham Hotspur v Wycombe Wanderers - The Emirates FA Cup Fourth Round
Akinfenwa is in a league of his own.

Let's get this straight - Adebayo Akinfenwa is a certified beast. There just couldn't be anyone else but him on top of this list, and deservedly so.

Almost 6 feet tall and weighing over 100 kilograms, Akinfenwa is more of a body-builder than a footballer.

To be fair to him, he has been a pretty good player for Swansea City, Northampton Town, and most recently - Wycombe Wanderers. 196 career goals in 451 games, and still going strong at 35. With that physique, you needn't wonder why!

However, it's certainly not his footballing ability we will remember him for.
