Barcelona stars Pau Cubarsi and Lamine Yamal have been named in the FIFPro World XI for 2026 along with summer signing Rodri.
The three players are joined by club legend Lionel Messi in the XI, with the team voted on by players from across the world.
Almost 20,000 players have voted based on performances over the last year and the men’s team has now been revealed.
David Raya gets the nod in goal behind a backline consisting of Cubarsi, Nuno Mendes and Achraf Hakimi.
Jude Bellingham, Rodri and Vitinha
are the midfielders, with Kylian Mbappe, Erling Haaland, Messi and Yamal completing the line-up.
Here’s how it looks:
Players are asked to vote on the three footballers they think were the best from August 2025 to July 2026 in the positions of goalkeeper, defender, midfielder and forward.
The team is then made up of one keeper, a back three, three midfielders and three attackers. The final spot in the XI goes to the remaining outfield player with the highest number of votes.
