PSG had an impressive run in the last campaign, where they claimed the Ligue 1 title and their first-ever Champions League title, and the French side exhibited the same stride in the Club World Cup. They won five out of their six matches in the competition prior to the final.

Vitinha was threatening the top 10 during the last set of B/R Ballon d'Or rankings, but the Portuguese has fully joined the conversation after the Club World Cup. To get an idea of the 25-year-old's influence on the French champions, consider the 771 passes he made during the tournament with an accuracy of 94 percent, per FIFA.
