With 2023 drawing to a close, the IFFHSor else h International Federation of Football History and Statisticsshared her picks for the 10 best players of the year.
The one who shone through his… absence, was Cristiano Ronaldo. The Portuguese forward played in 2023 in Saudi Arabia’s low-level league, which was apparently the main reason he was left off the list, even though he has 53 goals with Al Nasr and Portugaltop performance of the year!
“CR7” himself did not let his non-inclusion in the list go unaddressed, as he responded to a related post on social media with three laughing emojisshowing in a characteristic way how he finds jokes the specific option.
For history, the top player of the year from the IFFHS was named Erling Haaland, who broke the counters with his scoring and won the treble with City. Followed by Kylian Mbappewhile in third place finished o Lionel Messiwhich certainly also didn’t… make Cristiano happy.
