According to Scotland manager Gordon Strachan, the Poland striker has outdone Messi and Ronaldo over the past few weeks.

"You can say for the last five years that Messi and Ronaldo have been the best players in the world," he told Scotsman.com.

"I think he (Lewandowski) has been the best player in the world for the past month.

"And, if you are the world's best player even for a month or a week, it's some accolade.

"I think most of us would want to be the world's best player for a week. He has been a top, top, top, top player for the last four years."

Strachan and Scotland face Lewandowski's Poland in a Euro 2016 qualifier on Thursday.
