Sadly for him, though, it was another trophyless season for the former Tottenham ace and he will be desperate to secure the first silverware of his career with England this summer.

Individual accolades are no such issue for the 30-year-old and is undoubtedly Mbappe’s best challenger for the gong.

Cristiano Ronaldo (Portugal)

Though 39 and no longer playing at the top level, it would be foolish to count Cristiano Ronaldo out of the running.

The Portugal captain is the all-time top scorer at the European…
