The publication Give Me Sport has released a ranking of the 15 best central forwards in the world as of now.
According to their list, English player Harry Kane from Bayern Munich occupies the top spot, followed by Norwegian forward Erling Haaland from Manchester City in second place. French athlete Kylian Mbappe from Real Madrid completes the top three.
The 39-year-old forward for Al-Nassr and the Portugal national team, Cristiano Ronaldo, secured the tenth position in this ranking. Ronaldo joined the Saudi club in the winter of 2023 under a contract that runs until the summer of 2025. He has played a total of 66 matches for the team across all competitions, scoring 61 goals and providing 16 assists.
It is worth noting that the ranking was based on five key factors: the number of goals and assists, effective shots per game, the player's importance to the team, and individual performance metrics.
Previously, Ronaldo did not make the list of the best central forwards in football history, as ranked by Give Me Sport.
