Lewandowski was one of 30 players who were shortlisted by world football's governing body, FIFA.

Among the other footballers on the list are Gianluigi Buffon (Juventus), Cristiano Ronaldo (Real Madrid), Lionel Messi (Barcelona), and Neymar (Barcelona).

Lewandowski plays for Bayern Munich and also captains the Polish national football team.

He is the top scorer in Germany's Bundesliga. Recent reports claimed that he would extend his contract with Bayern until 2021 for an annual salary of EUR 15 million, although neither of the parties has confirmed that the deal has gone through. (rg)
