JAKARTA Left-footed players are a minority in the world of football. Regardless, some of the greatest footballers of all time are left-footers.
The left-footed players are players with unique advantages. They can be the most difficult players to face by the opponent's defenders.
As a result, the left-time player can add more dynamicism to the team as well as become a very complex opponent.
Players like Diego Maradona and Lionel Messi, who are widely regarded as the best in history, are left-legged players.
Despite minorities, history notes that there are some world-class left-footers who can amaze the audience with their actions.
Here are the best 5 left-footers available today:
1). Erling Haaland
Haaland has proven himself to be one of the best strikers in the world for two and a half years on duty at Borussia Dortmund.
He then left the German Bundesliga club last summer for Manchester City with a dowry of 60 million Euros. At the start of his first season in England, he immediately performed brilliantly.
In 10 appearances in all competitions for Manchester City so far this season, the 22-year-old has scored 14 goals and provided one assist. This performance makes him the best left-footer in the world today.
2). Lionel Messi
After leaving Barcelona's boyhood club in the summer of 2021, La Pulga faced a boring inaugural season at his new Paris Saint-Germain club.
However, this season Messi is back in his best form. He contributed to scoring six goals and giving eight assists in 11 appearances in all competitions for PSG.
3). Bernardo Silva
The Portugal international has been doing well for several years with Manchester City. He was one of the providers who were neat and often entered the penalty box to score goals.
The 28-year-old has been linked with a move to Barcelona this summer. However, he ended up staying at City and starting a new season well, scoring two goals and providing three assists in 10 appearances in all competitions.
4). David Alaba
Alaba joined Real Madrid in the summer of 2021 after spending eleven seasons with Bayern Munich. He enjoyed a great debut season in the Spanish capital, winning the La Liga title and the European Champions League.
He now continues to be one of Carlo Ancelotti's defenders of choice. The Austrian international is a versatile footballer who can play in many positions such as centre-back, left-back, left-wing, and mid-field as well.
5). Mohamed Salah
Salah is one of the most in-performing players in the world in the first half of the 2021/2022 season. However, the 30-year-old's performance began to dim since the turn of the year.
However, he is still one of the best left-footers ever. In nine appearances in all competitions so far this season, he contributed to scoring four goals and giving three assists.
