With the 2022 FIFA World Cup fast approaching, let’s take a look at the best soccer players of all time with some set to take the pitch in Qatar.
Switching gears from attacking to defense, there wasn’t a player who commanded a backline better than Paolo Maldini. He could shift between a center-back and left-back with no drop off in quality, and opposing attackers had to move mountains to overtake him on the way to getting a shot off. The Italian defender became an AC Milan club legend as he helped the club win seven Serie A titles and five European Cups/UEFA Champions Leagues from 1985 to 2009. Yes, you read that right.
The Portuguese star has been a prolific scorer and playmaker throughout his lengthy career for both club and country. He’s won multiple league titles with Manchester United, Real Madrid and Juventus along with the 2016 UEFA European Championship. The five-time Ballon d’Or winner will be looking to win the 2022 World Cup to add to his stacked resume. Moving to the other wing, Lionel Messi is considered the best right winger of all time.
