Salah enjoyed a sensational 2017-18 season as his goals propelled the Reds into the Champions League final, while he also led Egypt to a first World Cup appearance since 1990.

Modric and Ronaldo helped Real Madrid clinch the trophy in that final in Kiev, with the Croat also leading his nation to a maiden World Cup final.

After bowing out of the Russia finals with Portugal, Ronaldo made a surprise switch to Juventus, where he is bidding to become only the second player to win the Champions League with three different clubs.
