The most beautiful football players of the 2018 World Cup: photos of Antoine Griezmann and others

Real football fans, regardless of the results, remain loyal to their clubs, but for many so-called “glors”, beautiful combinations and goals are not as important as the handsome guys in many teams with a wonderful toned body, hairstyle, and the inevitable tattoos all over their bodies. Such “fans” are only interested in their favorite player, and not the club for which he plays; it is important for them to look at their idol on the screen as often as possible. Who are they, the players who won hearts not only with their game, but also with their beauty?

Cristiano Ronaldo (185 cm, born 1985)

According to the countless army of Ronaldo fans around the world, the TOP 10 most beautiful football players in the world simply must be headed by this Portuguese. He himself does not mind calling himself the best football player in history, it is no coincidence that he is very expensive. Many people admire Ronaldo and hold him up as an example. Cristiano showed a desire to play football as a child, and at the age of 10 he was taken up by the Nacional club. His talent was noticed there and he was promoted to Sporting Lisbon, where his first 2 goals occurred in 2002. After that, he was bought by Manchester United, where Ronaldo played 300 matches, scoring 130 goals. In 2013, he received the prestigious Ballon d'Or award. Football experts have always noted his professionalism and desire to make himself a beautiful body. He learned to score great penalties and more. But Ronaldo’s main earnings come not from his football career, but from advertising contracts. His name has long become a brand in the modern world; even those who don’t watch football at all know him. It is not surprising that many cosmetics and other companies chose him as their face, and now advertising with him flashes on billions of screens.

Alexander Maksimenko

Maksimenko has almost crossed the 22-year-old mark, but we simply could not help but add him to this list. The youngest main goalkeeper in the history of Spartak and hope for a happy future for all red-white fans. A year ago, Alexander’s play in the starting lineup was perceived as a necessary measure due to Selikhov’s injury, but now there is no full-fledged replacement for him in the club. And here a very important factor for any goalkeeper comes into play - trust. At the end of last season, Spartak was looking for a replacement for the young goalkeeper, but as soon as he started playing, all talk about it stopped. A distinctive feature of Maksimenko is the absence of noticeable excitement. Even if the team is under pressure, it has virtually no effect on him. Alexander always looks calm and very rarely makes unforced errors. Moscow Spartak is an unstable team, so they need just such a goalkeeper. Young age in this case only helps Maksimenko remain needed by the club.

Mats Hummels (191 cm, born 1988)

German defender Mats Hummels recently left for Bayern. By the way, his father Jonas also coached Bayern, and he instilled in his sons a love of football. The talented boys were noticed, but were not accepted to play for the Munich club. So Mats ended up in Dortmund, where he continued his football education until he became a player for the German national team. After completing his football career, he may well become a journalist, since he spent his childhood years with his mother in a similar job. She taught him to speak correctly and present himself beautifully in front of a television camera.

Nail Umyarov

Umyarov is the main discovery of the current Premier League season. Having been bought to Spartak from Chertanovo last winter, Nail started playing in the main team of the “red-whites” only in the fall, with the arrival of the new head coach Domenico Tedesco. The 19-year-old football player has noticeably refreshed the game in the center of the field and convinced the German specialist of his need. The result is the title of the best debutant of this season in Russia and a noticeable increase in transfer value. The only thing Umyarov lacks so far is courage in making key decisions, hence the rare hesitant blows. But this is generally typical for players spending their debut season in big football. Especially in a club like Spartak, where fans do not forgive mistakes. We will keep an eye on Nail and wait until he finally gains experience. Then our team will be able to get a young defensive player into the rotation at least.

Gerard Pique (192 cm, born 1987)

Spanish, or rather Catalan footballer Gerard Pique, after learning the basics of football at Barcelona's La Masia, ended up at Manchester United at the age of 17. There he behaved very modestly and tried to show all his best qualities on the field. But he became a truly great footballer when he returned to his beloved Barcelona, where captain Puyol continued to teach him the intricacies of the game. In 2009, he won his first Champions League with Barcelona, and the next year he became the world champion with the Spanish national team; in 2012, his next high-profile victory was in the European Championship.

Pique's interests are not limited to football alone - this multi-talented person develops various business projects, looks for sponsors for his club, and in his spare time plays poker and interviews other football players. He dreams of one day becoming president of Barcelona. Pique is very good as a man on his own, and together with his wife Shakira, he became the object of close attention from the female half and television. He gave birth to wonderful sons who try not to miss important matches in which their dad plays, and he himself loves to play ball with them in the meadow.

Magomed-Shapi Suleymanov

Shapi is the most expensive footballer in Russia among twenty-year-olds, although he has not yet really played for Krasnodar. In the main team of the club, Suleymanov played a little more than half of his team’s matches this season, but has progressed noticeably compared to last year. He scored important goals in the Champions League qualifying stage when he was still 19, and often changed the course of the game by coming on as a late substitute. For a long time, Shapi was even perceived by Krasnodar fans exclusively as the head coach’s “secret weapon.” But then it became clear that it was time to finally bring him into the core of the club. Now everything is going towards the fact that Suleymanov will still gain a foothold in the team, unless, of course, he is taken to Europe. After all, this winter the Spanish Sevilla were already interested in him. Not bad for a player who doesn't always start. But for now, Krasnodar does not risk giving away its player, because in a year or two his value may increase significantly. We hope that this will happen.

Olivier Giroud (192 cm, born 1986)

Don't worry, we're still talking about football, not cooking! Or more precisely, about the French national team striker Olivier Giroud, who played for Arsenal in London at the beginning of last season. His professional career cannot be called super successful. He began playing professionally in 2006, joining the modest French club Grenoble. Six years later, together with the national team, he went to the European Championship, and two years later, with a big scandal, to the World Championship. It was he who was considered the sexiest and most beautiful French football player in 2011. His coach even said in his hearts that Giroud should have played with his head on the field, and not been afraid of ruining his hair. Some journalists accuse him (like Ronaldo) of narcissism. Pride and faith in God are intricately intertwined in him. There was a case when, having defeated the Vietnamese team, to celebrate, Giroud gave his underpants to one of the fans, which greatly surprised eyewitnesses. He even managed to cheat on his wife with a girl who looked just like her.

Ivan Ignatiev

Ivan Ignatiev’s career so far has been much more eventful than that of his former teammate Suleymanov. They are the same age and played together at the Krasnodar academy at the same age. But Ignatiev turned out to be a little less patient and did not wait until the head coach began to fully count on him. That’s why he recently moved to Rubin, where, apparently, he was guaranteed a place in the team, and even under the leadership of Leonid Slutsky. In addition, the young footballer was not fully satisfied with the contract with his native club, so moving to a new team is a step forward for Ignatiev. There were rumors about Ivan's problems with discipline, so we hope Slutsky will be able to help the player concentrate on football. After all, Ignatiev is an exemplary central striker, who until now only lacked practice and complete trust. And if Ivan thinks only about football, we have no doubt that he will progress much more noticeably.

Javi Alonso (183 cm, born 1981)

TOP richest people in the world
Man has never been able to come up with a single ideal social system. Now capitalism dominates, the essence of which is to suppress the weak...

Spaniard Javi Alonso has already finished his football career, during which he managed to play at the World Cup and two European Championships. He didn’t have to choose a career for a long time, since he had a football family - his father and brother played, and his other brother worked as a referee. While playing for Real Madrid, Alonso won the Spanish Championship and the Copa del Rey once. Alonso is an exemplary family man, so he did not go to the game with Inter, preferring to stay with his pregnant wife, who is expecting the imminent birth of her second child. This act of his caused a scandal in Madrid, after which he moved to Bayern, but with a reputation as a reliable family man who does not allow scandals in the family.

Neymar

The football player is only 26 years old, during which he managed to play for the Brazilian club Santos, the Catalan Barcelona and become an Olympic champion in 2020. Now Neymar is a striker for the French club Paris Saint-Germain and the Brazilian national team. The World Cup in Russia is a kind of return to the field for the player. Neymar underwent surgery in February. During one of the games, he injured his leg, suffering a sprained ankle and a cracked bone.

The Brazilian national team will begin the World Cup with a game against the Swiss team on June 17 in Rostov-on-Don. Neymar is currently in Sochi. Follow the player's movements on Instagram. By the way, Neymar is one of the biggest stars on the social network: he has 94 million subscribers. At the same time, the football player willingly shares photographs of his son (7-year-old Davi Lucca) and his girlfriend, Brazilian actress and model Bruna Marchesini.

Iker Casillas (185 cm, born 1981)

For a long time, Real Madrid goalkeeper Iker Casillas was its captain, as well as the captain of the Spanish national team. He was able to win all the most important titles in world football, both in club football and at national team level. He, along with the legendary Gianluigi Buffon from Juventus, is recognized as the best goalkeeper of the current century. During the time he played for Madrid, he became a real idol and a favorite of the Los Blancos fans. The Madrid authorities even named an avenue after him. He is distinguished by his constancy and secretive nature. All his admirers were keenly aware of any news regarding the development of Casillas’ romance with journalist Sarah Carbonero. After Spain's victory at the World Cup, they decided to get married, and in 2014, Iker had their first child.

Handsome football players

Claudio Marchisio

This young 32-year-old football player, who plays for the Italian Juventus, has long been famous for his talent, but for some reason the gossip columns do not favor him with attention at all. And in vain. Because in addition to his handsome appearance and the ability to masterly handle the ball (for which he received the nickname “The Little Prince”), the man also has an extremely important quality - he is an excellent family man.

Back in 2008, he married Roberta Sinopoli. However, fate played a rather cruel joke on him. His wife supported the Torino club, which is the sworn enemy of Juventus, because the girl’s father once studied at the academy at this club.

The story is similar to Romeo and Juliet, but everything ended very well, and today the young people are the parents of two beautiful boys.

Jesus Navas

Having found a photo of that handsome guy on the Internet, you are not surprised that the most common search for his name is “Jesus Navas eyes.” A fleeting glance at the Spanish handsome man is enough for his light blue eyes to captivate and hypnotize you. However, along with beauty, nature, unfortunately, rewarded 32-year-old Jesus with serious health problems. The man suffers from epilepsy and panic attack syndrome.

Despite the unstable emotional state, which the handsome man admitted more than once in interviews, he was still able to find a life partner who was not afraid of this. In June 2011, Navas married a girl whom he had been dating for a long time. The wedding took place in his native Seville. Now the couple is raising a son, who was modestly named Jesus Jr.

Cesc Fabregas (175 cm, born 1987)

Spaniard Francesc Fabregas is a graduate of Barcelona, but he failed to stay in the ranks of the Blaugrana, after which he went to Foggy Albion. At the age of 16 he made his debut at Arsenal in London. Having achieved considerable success there, Cesc decided to try his luck again in Barcelona, but he was missing a little something. He had to go to England again, but this time to Arsenal’s enemies, Chelsea. Fabregas's family life began with a scandal. He started an affair with the wife of a Lebanese millionaire, which he accused him of. Backed up to the wall, they then got married and had a child together.

Despite the fact that beauty standards have been dictated by Western fashion for the last few hundred years, Europe is also not lagging behind in providing its standards of beauty...

Fedor Chalov

Chalov is the most famous and, perhaps, the most proven player at this age on our list. Fedor has only one trophy so far - the Russian Super Cup, but his track record is not limited to this: Chalov is the top scorer at last year's national championship. Moreover, his career was not without the main measure of the success of Russian football players - interest from European teams. Moreover, there is real interest, because last summer Fedor almost went to play in the English Championship. Then Crystal Palace was interested in him, but the Londoners were unable to agree with CSKA on the cost of the footballer. After this, Chalov spent a relatively unprepossessing autumn and, apparently, demand for him in Europe fell slightly. We hope that in the spring Fedor will come out of hibernation and will finally receive a call-up to the main team. After all, whatever one may say, among center forwards with a Russian passport, Fedor deserves a place in at least the top three.

Robin van Persie (183 cm, born 1983)

This bright Dutch striker once played in England for both Arsenal and Manchester United and was constantly present in the ratings of football beauties. He was once a bad guy, but he reformed. At school he was known as a bully, for which he was expelled from there several times. Already at the age of 14, he left his first club, Excelsior, having quarreled with the coach. His professional career began in 2001 after he was accepted by Feyenoord, where he became the best Dutch footballer for 7 years, scoring 14 goals in 61 games. Then there was a conflict with the Feyenoord coach, after which Van Persie decided to move to Arsenal. The team's management took the risk of recruiting such a controversial player to the team, and they made the right decision. In 2012, Robin moved from London to Manchester, where he scored 46 goals in 87 games.

Ivan Oblyakov

By the age of 21, the CSKA football player had already gained experience in two clubs and four levels of the Russian national team. Oblyakov was even invited to join the national team for the autumn matches with Cyprus and San Marino, but has not yet made his debut. He is a graduate of Zenit, but at one time he was not useful to his native St. Petersburg and therefore chose a club that is ideal for progress - Ufa. There, under the leadership of Sergei Semak, Ivan played two full seasons and was noticed by CSKA Moscow, another club that knows how to develop youth. In Moscow, Oblyakov found himself in a position in which there was simply no one to gain experience (the team was too rejuvenated in 2018), and began to take over the game in midfield. Ivan doesn’t score enough goals for his position, but when he does it, it turns out beautifully. He also often takes on defensive duties, which shows his versatility. Oblyakov is captivating because, despite his youth, he has already managed to move from promising to stable players in the Premier League, and then only the title of top football player.

Neymar (174 cm, born 1992)

Neymar Jr. is a Brazilian footballer who managed to play in Europe for Barcelona and PSG. Although Neymar considers himself a devout person, this does not stop him from striving for a beautiful life and wealth. His off-field appearance would be more suited to that of a rapper: tattoos on his body, flashy clothes, gaudy massive crosses and chains. When he wore a mohawk on his head, the nickname “rooster” was attached to him, and it stayed with him. Already at the age of 7, Neymar joined the Santos club, and at the age of 12 he was accepted into the Real Madrid academy. At the age of 15, all the top European clubs were looking at him. Neymar signed a contract with Santos in 2008, and in 2010 he received his first title. 20 million euros from Chelsea did not convince Neymar to forget about his loyalty to Santos, but when an offer came from Barcelona itself, in 2013 he decided to make the move. Last season, having decided to “come out of Messi’s shadow,” Neymar unexpectedly moved to PSG with a loud scandal, but, it seems, he did not find happiness there either. Not knowing the lack of attention from fans, Neymar became a father at the age of 19, and the number of his lovers continues to grow.

Igor Diveev

Diveev largely follows Oblyakov’s path, but with one amendment. If Ivan was initially bought by Ufa from Zenit, then the Bashkir club raised Igor in its academy. As a result, both are now in CSKA. They started playing at the club almost simultaneously, with a difference of only six months. But Diveev has a completely different position on the field, he is a central defender. And he ended up in CSKA after the retirement of three veterans of the club’s defense: Sergei Ignashevich and the Bereztsuki brothers. This means that a difficult task fell on Igor’s shoulders - not to disappoint the “red-blue” fans. So far, Diveev, of course, has not reached the level of play of the same Ignashevich in his best years, but he is progressing noticeably, and most importantly, he is coping with his task (CSKA concedes few goals this season). Igor has good physical characteristics: tall, broad shoulders and long legs. In short, everything to be a reliable central defender. More recently, the Berezutsky brothers returned to the club in managerial positions, and although they will not take part in the training process, they are quite capable of motivating Diveev to become better. We believe this will happen.

Robin Van Persie

This 35-year-old Dutchman is in the top ten most beautiful football players in the world. His professional career began in 2001 when he joined Feyenoord. After that, for 7 years he was recognized as the best football player in Holland. For this club, the footballer managed to play 61 games and score 14 goals.

However, after some time he had a conflict with the coach, which is why Robin was sent to the bench. Then he received an offer to play for Arsenal, where he moved, remaining there until 2012. His next home was Manchester United, for which he played 87 matches and scored 46 goals.

David Villa

David is 37 years old and is from Spain. At the age of 4, the football player received a serious hip injury, and his father, in order to help his son rehabilitate faster, forced him to constantly play football. At first it was very difficult for him, training was not easy, but later he was able to express himself to the fullest.

At the age of 17, he went to football school. Since 2005, he was Valencia's best striker; in 2010, Barcelona invited him to their team for 7 million euros per year. At the 2010 World Cup, the soccer star scored five goals and was named player of the year. During his career, he became a world and Spanish football champion, and also won the Super Cup.

David has been married since 2003 and has three children.

Marco Reus

Marco Reus is 29 years old and is from Germany. The young footballer played for the national team for the first time in 2011, and a year later received the prestigious title of “Best Footballer”.

Arsenal striker Olivier Giroud is now 29 years old, although we still confuse him with a young boy. Alas, the Frenchman is no longer an eligible bachelor, since the football player got married several years ago and became the happy father of a charming daughter. It is interesting that Olivier Giroud, on the eve of the European Championship, promised to dye his beard in the colors of the French flank if his country wins the European Football Championship.

Euro 2016: TOP 10 most beautiful football players in the world David Beckham

Sorry, but speaking about the most beautiful football players in the world, we could not help but remember, although fans will not see him at Euro 2016 (except perhaps in the spectator box). He ended his career several years ago, but Beckham left a mark on himself in the history of football, becoming the first Englishman to win the championships of four countries: France, England, Spain and the USA.

It is very difficult to choose the most beautiful football player in the world, if only because one can argue about tastes forever, and in modern football, where many try to stand out with an original hairstyle, accessory or style of celebrating goals, the task becomes extremely difficult. But we found a recipe for determining the most beautiful players of recent years, which seems to us quite objective - having “shoveled” on the Internet more than a hundred different ratings and “tops” compiled by foreign female authors, we selected ten football players who are most often mentioned in these journalistic works , and we present to you this top ten, magnificent in every sense.

Olivier Giroud

Beautiful eyes, always an elaborate hairstyle, an expressive face shape, and even French (and this is important for women). Cheated on his wife? Well, it happens, no one is perfect. Especially when there are always so many representatives of the fair sex around you.

Menshealth.com

Giroud scored a lot of points in his “piggy bank” to get into our rating thanks to these shots.

James Rodriguez

Even if he finds himself in the shadow of “You-Know-Who” in Real Madrid, the Colombian midfielder still remains one of the favorites of women’s hearts. Especially when these women's eyes look at Rodriguez's lingerie photo shoot. James's own brand, by the way!

Sergio Ramos

You don't have to be smart to be beautiful and be great at playing football. Sergio Ramos received his school diploma only at the age of 28, but by that time he had become a world football star and a conqueror of women's hearts all over the planet. And it doesn’t matter in what form - a long-haired “Tarzan”...

Sergio Ramos, fifawallpapers.com

...or a bearded macho. Girls are crazy about both versions of Sergio!

Claudio Marchisio

Another regular in the women's rankings of men's football beauty. Young ladies love Italians no less than the French, and here they come with stunningly deep eyes and modeling contracts with perfume manufacturers, who, as you know, are not called “ugly”.

Iker Casillas

A legend of the world goalkeeper workshop and a very stylish, attractive man. Iker was a role model for an entire football generation, and this is not only about Casillas’ professional qualities, but also about his external data.

Fabio Cannavaro

Even after finishing his playing career, Fabio continues to be included in various rankings of handsome football players. And it is unlikely that the fair sex who make up these ratings include Fabio there because he became the first defender in many years to win the Ballon d'Or.

Gerard Pique

Could such a famous and selective lady as Shakira marry a freak? In no case. So Pique easily finds himself in the “tops” of the most beautiful football players.

Xabi Alonso

When the Basque was young and beardless, he was simply beautiful, and when he grew a beard, he also became brutally handsome. However, the ladies were delighted with both the first version of Xabi Alonso and the second.

Cristiano Ronaldo

Cristiano’s advertising contracts are already tired of being counted, and the videos with his cute little face are the same. In the football world there will be a long debate about who is cooler on the football field - Messi or Ronaldo? But outside the “green rectangle”, the competition between these two iconic characters for the modern game is confidently won by the Portuguese.

David Beckham

Even after finishing his football career, David Beckham does not cease to be a cult figure for the favorite game of millions, and millions of girls and women around the world immediately pronounce the name “Beckham” immediately after the word “football”. A true style icon in the world of sports, whose level will be difficult to achieve for many years to come.

Hector Bellerin (23)

Spain

The Arsenal and Spanish national team defender is our top favorite. And, how painful it is, this Sunday our hearts will bleed when Spain fights Russia in Moscow’s Luzhniki Stadium.
