Real Madrid star Cristiano Ronaldo believes Mohamed Salah has pushed himself into the Ballon d'Or reckoning.
"Mo Salah has been one of the revelations of the year," Ronaldo said.
"I hope his injury in the final in Kiev doesn't keep him out.
"Many people talk about the Cristiano Ronaldo-Messi battle but there are other players who have chances to enter the race (for Ballon d'Or). The Egyptian is one of them."
