Cristiano Ronaldo, Virgil van Dijk and Lionel Messi announced as final three shortlisted for FIFA's The Best Men's Player award


FIFA have unveiled its three-man shortlist for the 2019 Best Men's Player award - with Cristiano Ronaldo, Virgil van Dijk and Lionel Messi all competing for the top prize.

The European superstars will battle it out to win the prestigious gong, currently held by Real Madrid's Luka Modric, in a ceremony held in Milan on September 23. All three names were recognised for their formidable achievements at both the front and rear of the pitch throughout the last year.

The trio are also set to contest in the final three of the Balon d'Or award, which is to be announced later this year - and van Dijk remains the current favourite.
