On December 24, Beijing time, the British "Guardian" annual top 100 superstars announced, and finally the Polish star Lewan from Bayern Munich pressed Messi and successfully won the top spot of the top 100 superstars. Messi is in second place, and his old rival C Ronaldo is only 8th.
Throughout 2021, Levan was impeccable in terms of individual performance, a year in which Levan broke multiple football records. He won last season's European Golden Boot and Bundesliga Golden Boot, and in terms of team honors, he won the Bundesliga championship, the German Super Cup and the Club World Cup, and equaled Ronaldo's record with 69 goals of the year. It is worth mentioning that this is the second consecutive year that Levan has ranked first in the top 100 stars.
Messi's performance in 2021 was equally perfect, at club level he won the La Liga Golden Boot for a record of 8, the Copa del Rey led Barca to the title, and in the national team Messi led Argentina to the 28-year-old championship. He himself won the Ballon d'Or for the 7th time and continued to set a new record for himself.
In third place is Liverpool star Salah, who has moved up five places from last year. Benzema is 4th after Salah, up eight places from 12th last year. Jorginho, who has performed well in Chelsea and the Italian national team, came directly to the top 5 this year, and he did not get a chance to be in the list last year.
The 6th-place Parisian Kylian Mbappe, who finished 7th last year, is the most prolific player outside of Levan this year. In seventh place is Dort's Haaland, who has slipped one place from last year. Cristiano Ronaldo ranked 8th this year, down 5 places from 3rd last year. In ninth place is Chelsea player N'Golo Kante, who rose 46 places from last year. Manchester City player De Bruyne is 10th, down six places from last year.
