The Daily Star compiled the rankings and highlighted Messi’s “remarkable” passing range and vision.
The publication reckoned that the Barcelona and Argentina captain can “decide a contest in a split second or attempt a passage of play that others could not even contemplate.”
De Bruyne finished behind Messi in the list as the Manchester City playmaker has been in impressive form for his side.
The 29-year-old Belgian midfielder has provided a 17-assist haul and scored nine goals across all competitions this summer.
