Lent.az reports that, according to ESPN, Frenchman Kilian Mbappe is currently recognized as the best center forward in the world. The Real striker surpassed Robert Lewandowski (Barcelona) and Harry Kane (Bavaria) in this nomination.

Mbappe's teammate, Briton Jude Bellingham, was selected as the world's best attacking midfielder, followed by Florian Wirtz (Bayer) and Jamal Musiala (Bavaria). 

Last season's Premier League top scorer, Liverpool player Mohamed Salah, leads the list of the best wingers, surpassing two Barcelona players, Lamin Yamal and Rafinha.

The category of the world's best defenders is headed by Moroccan Ashraf Hakimi (PSG), followed by Trent Alexander-Arnold (Real) and Jules Kounde (Barcelona). 

In the category of "The world's best central midfielder", the award is given to Pedri (Barcelona), who beat Declan Rice (Arsenal) and Federico Valverde (Real).

Real's Belgian goalkeeper Tibo Courtois was chosen as the best goalkeeper in the world. He surpassed his colleagues Alisson (Liverpool) and Gianluigi Donnarumma (PSG).
