FIFA announce nominees for Best Men’s Player of the Year award 2017

The Best Award seems to be FIFA’s answer to France Football Magazine’s Ballon D’or; after the two entities split last year, Cristiano Ronaldo became the first recipient of the Award when he walked away with it (and the Ballon d’Or) after a scintillating 2016 where he not only won the UEFA Champions League with Real Madrid and then crowned it by guiding Portugal to their first ever major international trophy in the 2016 Euros.
His 2017 has been a continuation of the brilliance he exhibited last year – his smashing form in this calendar year (a hat trick each against Bayern Munich and Atletico Madrid, and a brace against Juventus – in the QF, SF, and finals respectively!) has seen Madrid sweep to their first Champions League/La Liga double since 1958, and as he showed during the first leg of the Supercopa 2017, he’s started this season on fire!
