The Best Footballer in Asia 2019, recognizing the best male footballer in Asia in 2019, is the 7th edition of the Best Footballer in Asia, presented by Titan Sports. Son Heung-min won the award on 3 January 2020.[1] It was his 3rd Best Footballer in Asia title in a row, and the 5th in the previous 6 years.[2] The event was judged by a panel of 51 sports journalists. With 31.6% of all points awarded, Son Heung-min achieved the highest tally of Best Footballer in Asia in history at the time.[3]
