27: Ewa Pajor
It’s no surprise to see Pajor ranked so highly again and it could have been higher had her year not been curtailed by injury. Some players wouldn’t rank at all but Pajor featured enough and played well enough to once again pop up inside the top 30. Nine goals between December and when the season finally ended after the restart in June made her one of the top scorers once again in Germany, and Pajor is continuing to grow into one of the world’s best. She scored five goals in two games for Germany at the start of the year and given she’s still just 23, many will wonder just how good the Polish striker is going to become when she returns from injury.
