Can you name the 1999 FIFA World Player of the Year top 10?

To celebrate Rivaldo's 52nd birthday, Sports Mole challenges you to name the 1999 FIFA World Player of the Year top 10.

Legendary footballer Rivaldo turns 52 today, and it would be fair to say that he had a brilliant career in the game.

The former forward's most famous spell at club level came between 1997 and 2002, when he scored 130 times in 235 appearances for La Liga giants Barcelona, lifting two La Liga titles in the process.

Rivaldo went on to win the Champions League at AC Milan, while he played a key role in Brazil securing the 2002 World Cup, netting in five of his nation's seven matches at the famous tournament.

His club career started in 1991 at Santa Cruz and ended in 2015 at Mogi Mirim.

Rivaldo was handed the 1999 FIFA World Player of the Year award for his performances at club and international level, but how many of the other nine players on the list can you name?
