The ranking of the top 100 football players in history sparked debate

The ranking of the top 100 football players in history compiled by The Athletic publication is causing widespread discussions on social media. This was reported by Zamin.uz.

According to euro-football.ru, the top ten players on this list are: Lionel Messi, Diego Maradona, Pele, Johan Cruyff, Cristiano Ronaldo, Alfredo di Stefano, Franz Beckenbauer, Zinedine Zidane, Ferenc Puskás, and Michel Platini.

These players are recognized as the brightest stars of their eras. However, it is emphasized that creating such rankings completely objectively is difficult.

On various platforms, especially Reddit, intense debates among football fans are observed. Some fans expressed dissatisfaction with Pele, a three-time world champion, being placed third.

Additionally, goalkeeper Lev Yashin occupies the 18th position on this list. His placement at this rank has also sparked some controversies.

Overall, the ranking has generated significant interest in the football world and is expected to be discussed for a long time.
