Striker demarcation is possibly one of the most important positions in modern football. That is why we want to make a ranking of top 10 best center forwards in the world in which we will choose the most decisive players of the moment. We may leave a few good players out of the top 10, but they don't all fit.
To make this classification we can include very specific statistics unlike the ranking of the top 10 best center forward in the world.
How do we rank the best centre forwards (CD) in the world at the moment?
When it comes to classifying and evaluating the top 10 best centre forward in the world, we take into account several factors of each player. The scorer aspect is key, although there is more. There are forwards who contribute much more than goals to their team, making other teammates play, assisting and opening holes in rival defences, defensive work …
Goals per game: 70%.
Attack game: 30% *.
* The impact it has on game creation beyond assists. A clear example is Firmino.
CLARIFICATION: You must know that we are talking about the position of pure centre forward (CF). This means that we exclude players like Lionel Messi, Mohamed Salah, Neymar Jr, Mbappé, Sterling, Mané… for not being their position. It is not a normal scorers table, we add more criteria.
10. Karim Benzema :

Age: December 19, 1987, Lyon, France.
Current team (2020): Real Madrid.
The former French international player was perfectly happy to play in the shadow of Cristiano Ronaldo during the Portuguese days in Madrid, and it was notable that Ronaldo always seemed more comfortable when playing alongside Benzema.
The former Olympique Lyonnais centre forward has had to take on more responsibilities since Cristiano Ronaldo's departure, a challenge he has not eluded. The French player has increased his numbers since he has become the reference in attack while continuing to assist and help his teammates see the door with ease.
The most normal thing is that he would have a World Cup in his record if he did not have entry to the calls banned. Despite this, he is one of our world's top forward.

9. Romelu Lukaku :

Age: May 13, 1993, Antwerp, Belgium.
Current team (2020): Inter Milan.
Early evidence suggests that Ole Gunnar Solskjaer may have made a mistake watching the Belgian's performance in Italy.
Lukaku has done an exceptional job taking Mauro Icardi's place at the San Siro, having scored 23 goals in his first 35 matches in all competitions. His touch remains erratic and his linking game still needs to be worked out, but Lukaku's credentials as an effective scorer cannot be questioned.

8. Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang :

Age: June 18, 1989, Laval, France.
Current team (2020): Arsenal.
Having signed Alexandre Lacazette a few months earlier, some Gunner fans were a bit surprised to see that such a great effort was being made to take over the services of Aubameyang (29 years old in January 2018).
A total of 56 million pounds was paid to Borussia Dortmund (very close to entering the most expensive signings in football) in exchange for the centre forward and the reality is that it has been one of the few joys that have been in the Emirates Stadium in the last years.
The Gabonese international shared the Premier League Golden Boot with Sadio Mane and Mohamed Salah in 2018/19, scoring 22 goals in the English league and another nine in all other competitions. Sharp and fast, Aubameyang is a deadly finisher that is very difficult to stop.

7. Mauro Icardi :

Age: February 19, 1993, Rosario, Argentina.
Current team (2020): PSG.
Mauro Icardi is not what we will call a shy and retired footballer off the pitch, Inter supporters are aware. Controversy was never far away during Mauro's six years at San Siro, but there is no doubt that he more than made up for it, as evidenced by his record of 124 goals in 219 matches.
The Argentine player has continued in a similar vein since joining PSG on loan in the summer, finding the net a total of 20 times in 25 games. There is room for improvement in his facet outside the area but he makes up for it with an exceptional game inside it.

6. Roberto Firmino :

Age: October 2, 1991, Maceió, Alagoas, Brazil.
Current team (2020): Liverpool.
Firmino is not a typical center forward, like most of the players on this list. His qualities may be more of a midfielder than a striker, but Jurgen Klopp has used him as a forward at Anfield (voted the best stadium in the world) playing a false nine role that has paid off very well.
As you can see from their numbers and statistics, we are not looking at a born scorer. However, the qualities for which he stands out (intelligent, dynamic and technically gifted) make everyone who plays alongside him better. In this case, we are talking about the Salah-Mane duo.
