The 10 best footballers of the 21st century according to popular media outlet, ESPN have been revealed as fans eagerly await a new club football season.
Popular sports media outlet in its latest publication has announced the top 10 best footballers of the 21st century given their current achievements for both club and country.
Describing how the final outcome of the list was created the media brand revealed that the final result was arrived at after voting from top football fans in different parts of the world. The publication stated, “It was no easy feat (and disagreements will surely follow), but after collating together thousands of votes, we present to you our ranking of the best 20 male soccer players of the 21st century — and five others who just missed the list.”
