Cristiano Ronaldo has been left out in the world best 11 footballers for 2023 announced by the Federation of International Football Association (FIFA) on Monday.
TheNewsGuru.com (TNG) reports FIFA in London, United Kingdom (UK), announced the world best 11 for 2023 to include Ronaldo’s eternal rival, Lionel Messi.
Ronaldo’s move to Al-Nassr in Saudi Arabia has seemingly moved him out of the limelight, while Messi still shines in MLS for Inter Miami.
The 2023 FIFA men’s category of the world best 11 has treble-winners Manchester City dominating the line-up.
John Stones, Kyle Walker, Ruben Dias, Bernardo Silva, Kevin De Bruyne, and Erling Haaland were all named in the team.
Real Madrid are firmly represented with goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois, midfielder Jude Bellingham and winger Vinicius Jr.
TNG reports the FIFA world best 11 line up was completed by PSG’s Kylian Mbappe.
However, the biggest takeaway from the FIFA world best 11 is the oddity of the formation, with a 3-3-4 taking shape.
City players make up the entire defence, with Walker, Stones and Dias all representing the backline.
Silva and De Bruyne, alongside Bellingham form the midfield make up.
The attack features City’s Haaland and Madrid’s Vinicius, alongside Mbappe and Messi.
