Second-placed Virgil van Dijk, meanwhile, named Messi as number one, Salah in second and Mane third.
While the other two finalists did name at least one of their direct rivals among the top three, Ronaldo opted for Matthijs de Ligt in first place followed by De Jong and Kylian Mbappe.
As always, FIFA's The Best award is decided by four voting panels, namely national team coaches, national team captains, journalists and fans, with each of them weighing 25%.
Each and every voter selects their personal top three, with the first-placed player receiving five points, second-placed three and third one. In the end all points will be added up to select the overall winner.
