There are constant discussions among soccer fans about who is the best soccer player in the world. These discussions can be divided into objective and subjective.
Objectively speaking, it can be said that the best football player is the one who received the FIFA Ballon d’Or award. This is an award given to footballers who have achieved the best stats in the preceding calendar year. If you look at it that way, the best player today is Karim Benzema. He is a French striker who plays for Real Madrid daily. Last year he led his team to victory in the Spanish League and the Champions League.
Subjectively speaking, every soccer fan has his favorite player, whom he considers the best. Among the footballers who have been active in this century, Cristiano Ronaldo and Leo Messi should undoubtedly be mentioned. These two footballers have taken football to a completely different level by breaking all records that were before their time. Both footballers are a true phenomenon that may not be repeated in human history.
