There has never been an English born FIFA World Player of the year. Two English players have been runners up; David Beckham (1999 and 2001) and Frank Lampard (2005). Alan Shearer (1996) and Gary Lineker (1991) both come third.
The only English based player to win the award is the Portuguese midfielder Cristiano Ronaldo in 2008 whilst playing for English Premier League team Manchester United.
