Full List: Mohamed Salah and Sadio Mane make FIFA’s shortlist for 2019 Best Men’s Player Award

FIFA has announced the official 10-man shortlist for The Best Fifa Men’s Player 2019, which includes African superstars Mohamed Salah and Sadio Mane.

Luka Modric won the award last season, ending the 10-year reign of Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi, but the Croatian did not make this year’s shortlist.

Ronaldo and Messi, however, were named among the nominees, who were selected by a panel of Fifa legends. The Portugal captain won the Serie A and Supercoppa Italiana titles in his debut season at Juventus plus the Uefa Nations League with Portugal, while Messi lifted the LaLiga trophy with FC Barcelona and also claimed the European Golden Shoe.
