The FIFA FIFPRO Men’s Globe 11 is football’s most prestigious ‘Team of the Year’ award, and the ‘Class of 2021’ was been announced to the world.
While The Finest FIFA Football Awards officially began in 2016, football’s global governing body has been selecting the best team in the world since the dizzying days of 2005.
Because of the prize’s duration, Paolo Maldini, Zinedine Zidane, and Andriy Shevchenko all appeared on the first team sheet, although Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi were absent.
As a result, it was arguably one of the more intriguing trophies presented at FIFA’s awards event in Switzerland on Monday evening.
Furthermore, while only one of Robert Lewandowski, Mohamed Salah, or Lionel Messi could win the overall male prize, every spot in the World XI was up for grabs.
Ladies and gentlemen, prepare to be impressed by the 2021 FIFA FIFPRO Men’s World 11 in all its grandeur, which you can see below:
