The 25 Best Players in La Liga Right Now, Ranked

La Liga has no shortage of superstars in 2026/27. From the three-headed monster at Real Madrid to Barcelona's seemingly endless collection of elite young talent, the league remains home to some of the most gifted footballers anywhere in the world. But this isn't a ranking of the most famous players, the players with the biggest transfer values, or the players with the best careers. This is about who the best players in La Liga are right now. Current ability matters most. So does recent form, consistency, importance to their team, and the simple question of how much of a difference they make when they're at their best.

And if there were any doubts that Arsenal are the greatest side in women's football in England, they put that all to rest by being the first English team to win the Champions League since they themselves last did it in 2007.

From Ballon d'Or strikers George Weah, Marco van Basten, and Andriy Shevchenko to the impenetrable defensive trio of Paolo Maldini, Franco Baresi, and Billy Costacurta, we ranked the top 10 greatest AC Milan players of all time. 10. ST George Weah AC Milan only had George Weah for about five years, but the Serie A giants had the Liberian sensation at his peak after he had already conquered Ligue 1 with a league title and three cups between his tenures at PSG and Monaco. But it was in Milan where Weah would become the first African to win the Ballon d'Or, following that season up with three straight appearances in the FIFA World XI.
