CRISTIANO Ronaldo, who has a good chance of winning the Ballon d’Or for judged being football’s best player, has won the Salon d’Or for having the best hair in the game.

Goal magazine made the announcement after getting readers to decide whose mane they liked the best.

Ronaldo won with 32 per cent of the vote, an overwhelming victory.

Coming in second was Juventus midfielder Andrea Pirlo, whose retro long hair and beard was a popular look, with 9.4 per cent of the vote.

A lot of football fans like Andrea Pirlo’s look.

Brazil’s Neymar came third with 7.9 per cent of the vote for his spiky mop.

The 20-player shortlist was drawn up by international hair stylist Daniel Johnson. Liverpool’s Mario Balotelli and Real Madrid’s Gareth Bale were all on the list.

“Ronaldo deserves this victory,” Johnson told Goal.

“He wears his hair like the badge on his shirt — with serious pride.

“What’s great about Ronaldo’s hairstyle is that it suits difference face shapes — and the shape of the face is vital,” he said. “I think that will have been a factor in the voting — it’s the haircut fans are most likely to get. For example, Gareth Bale asked me for a similar cut, and that became massive among fans, with 1.6 million asking barbers for the style after he joined Real Madrid.”
