Would "谁踢最好的足球" be considered correct ?

I'm pretty sure that your sentence would be like saying "Who plays the best soccer" vs. "Who plays soccer the best".

      吗 is only used for yes/no questions. Since you already have 谁 you don't need another question word.

        Nobody says "Who plays soccer the best?" How about "Who is the best soccer player?"

          I think the "hen" (very) is superfluous here, since "zui" (most) is already there.

            That's not a "hen" but a "de".

              Oops! My mistake! There is no "hen" and "de" is required here.
