The year 2023 marks the breakthrough of a series of names such as Haaland, Messi, Mbappe or the return of Cristiano Ronaldo. Below are the top 6 players worth watching in the world in 2023.
Erling Haaland cannot be missed on this list. The Norwegian striker has scored 50 goals in 2023 for Man City and the national team. After helping the club win three last season, Haaland is increasingly improving and is the leader of The Citizens in the context of conductor Kevin De Bruyne’s injury.
After finishing second to Messi in the 2023 Golden Ball and the unfortunate FIFA The Best 2023, Haaland is expected to return with even stronger determination in 2024 to prove himself with a noble individual title. .
The year 2023 marked a major turning point in Ronaldo’s career when he left European football to go to Saudi Arabia to play for Al Nassr Club. Up to now, this can be considered the right step as it helps CR7 revive his strong performance.
Compared to only 16 goals and 4 assists in 46 matches in 2022, Ronaldo in 2023 has 54 goals and 15 assists in 59 matches in all competitions, thereby becoming the top scorer of the year. In addition, CR7’s media appeal is still huge. So even though he no longer plays in Europe, every match with the presence of the Portuguese superstar is still enthusiastically welcomed.
Similar to Ronaldo, Messi with his tremendous charisma has raised the bar and helped Inter Miami become a global brand. Tickets to watch the club’s matches are always sold out while the purchasing power for MLS television rights is increasing.
Unfortunately, in the second half of 2023, Messi has many physical problems and injuries. That leaves him with little playing time, but El Pulga will certainly return strongly in 2024 with his first full MLS season with Inter Miami.
