8. David de Gea:
At number eight in the list of Top Ten Football Players in the World at the Moment is David de Gea.
A poor performance in this year’s FIFA World Cup 2018 might have harmed David de Gea’s reputation, but the Spaniard is arguably the best goalkeeper in the world at the moment.
The Manchester United star won his first Premier League golden glove after recording 18 clean sheets during the 2017-18 season.
Since joining United, De Gea has made over 300 appearances and won a Premier League title, an FA Cup, a League Cup, three Community Shields and the UEFA Europa League.
For three consecutive seasons from 2013–14 to 2015–16, he was elected as United’s Sir Matt Busby Player of the Year, the first player in the award’s history to win on three successive occasions.
