Analysts at Ticketgum have given players a “sexy score” after crunching numbers based on physical attributes, status and social media opinions.
Former Roma captain Daniele De Rossi is top of the list with a rating of 8.57/10.
In second place is Man Utd legend Nemanja Vidic with a score of 7.80.
And in bronze medal spot is another Roma hero Francesco Totti, who comes in just behind the Serbian centre-back.
Gareth Bale only hung up his boots in January and has already made the top five alongside now tough-talking pundit Roy Keane.
Most would have expected Beckham to be No1, but he comes sixth with a sexy score of 6.98 despite his global status.
A surprise inclusion sees former Manchester City title-winner Pablo Zabaleta come seventh followed by ex-Liverpool defender Martin Skrtel.
England legend Wayne Rooney is ninth before Germany and Bayern Munich goalscorer Mario Gomez completes the top ten.
