Liverpool dominate FIFA FIFPro Men's World XI

The Premier League champions had four players in the World XI. Real Madrid's Sergio Ramos and Barça's Leo Messi were the only representatives from LaLiga.

The idea that LaLiga is lost prestige in Europe during recent seasons was underlined by the umber of players from the competition who made the FIFA FIFPro Men's World XI which was announced at tonight FIFA The Best awards gala in Zurich. Just a couple of years ago, it was quite a common site to see players from Real Madrid, Barça and Atelti occupying at least on position in each line of the all-star XI - in 2013, LaLiga players made up the whole team but now, just two players figure among the world's elite: Sergio Ramos and Leo Messi.

The captains from Real Madrid and Barcelona were LaLiga's only representatives in this year's World XI although Thiago Alcãntara, along with Ramos meant that Spain was the most represented country this time around.

Red XI

Premier League champions Liverpool were the most represented club with four players in the 2020 World XI, although Sadio Mané, who polled a substantial amount of votes, just missed out on a place in the attack which was formed by Cristiano Ronaldo, Robert Lewandowski and Messi. 

As always, there will be much debate about the players included in the World XI and who was left out.
