The 2025 Ballon d’Or Ceremony in Paris delivered plenty of drama, with Ousmane Dembele crowned the world’s best player ahead of Lamine Yamal. But in England, all eyes were on Liverpool’s Mohamed Salah, who secured an impressive 4th place finish in the final rankings.
The Egyptian forward has been a model of consistency, recording yet another incredible season for the Premier League champions. With 42 goal contributions across all competitions, Salah was central to Liverpool’s domestic and European campaigns.
Liverpool wasted no time in celebrating their talisman. Posting across their official social channels, the Reds congratulated Salah, highlighting his relentless performances and calling him “a legend who continues to inspire the world of football.”
Fans also joined in, flooding social media with messages of pride, praising Salah’s dedication and impact. Many supporters argued that Salah deserved to finish higher, with some even placing him above PSG duo Dembele and Vitinha.
