Lewandowski and Jorginho came second and third respectively, but Salah only ranked seventh. After his brace at Goodison on Wednesday, he was asked the 29-year-old for his response to finishing so far down the list.
His reaction was telling: bursting into laughter and shaking his head before the interviewer had even finished his question.
"I have no comment," Salah repeated, continuing to laugh.

Prior to the game, Jurgen Klopp had expressed his surprise that Salah didn't challenge Messi.
"It is not in my hands," he said at a press conference. "Is the Ballon d’Or a journalists vote? Then yeah, don’t ask me, it’s your fault.
"If you think he should be higher up, then you should convince your colleagues. You can give it to Lionel Messi for the career he has had, all these kind of things, but then don’t give it to Robert Lewandowski this time – so it’s quite tricky to win it at all. Mo definitely should have been higher up."Explore more on these topics:
