Real Madrid have dominated the long list of the FIFPro World XI after their record 12thChampions League victory with 13 players nominated – the same amount from the entire Premier League.

Harry Kane is the only Englishman on the list with Gareth Bale joining him as the only other British nominee.

Of the Premier League players nominated, there are six Manchester United players, three from Chelsea, two from Arsenal, one each from Tottenham and Liverpool but none from Manchester City.

The long list was formed after a total of 25,000 professional footballers were asked to select a team of 11 players, made up of one goalkeeper, four defenders, three midfielders and three attackers, from across the world.

And the 55 players with the most votes have now been revealed, with Zinedine Zidane’s side’s historic achievement of back-to-back wins – the first time since the European Cup was rebranded as the Champions League – heavily recognised in the voting.
