FIFA have revealed the FIFA FIFPRO Men's World XI 2022.
Thibaut Courtois, Achraf Hakimi, Joao Cancelo, Casemiro and Karim Benzema have made the 2022 FIFA FIFPRO Men’s World 11 for the first time, while Lionel Messi earned his 16th inclusion, taking outright the record he previously shared with Cristiano Ronaldo.
The Portuguese missed out for the first time since 2006 as Luka Modric made the team for a sixth time – a figure bettered only by Dani Alves (8), Andres Iniesta (9), Sergio Ramos (11), Ronaldo (15) and Messi.
Kylian Mbappe, who missed out in 2020 and 2021, returned to the XI and Erling Haaland made it back-to-back selections.
Virgil van Dijk and Kevin De Bruyne, with their third inclusions apiece, completed the side.
