How to spawn object on mouse position?

When I click right click I want to create new sphere. And I don't know why this don't work. It creates a sphere, but definitely not on mouse position!

Vector2 mousePos;
public Transform mousePointer;
float mouseX, mouseY;
Vector3 spawnPoint;

void Start () {

}

void Update () {
    if(Input.GetMouseButtonDown(1)){
        mousePos = Input.mousePosition;
        mouseX = Input.mousePosition.x;
        mouseY = Input.mousePosition.y;
        spawnPoint = new Vector3(mouseX, mouseY, 0);
        Instantiate(mousePointer, spawnPoint, Quaternion.identity);
    }
}

Try spawning the object relative to the camera.

For example, use spawnPoint = cameraPosition + new Vector3(mouseX, mouseY, 0); or something similar. Check out the related post: Create a cube relative to camera mouse position.

The object is being spawned in global coordinates.
