Lionel Messi has been named in the FIFPRO World 11 for a record 18th time, while 2026 Ballon d'Or winner Harry Kane failed to make the team.

The 2026 World 11 was selected through votes from 19,806 professional footballers across 73 countries.

Messi returned to the team after a two-year absence. Lamine Yamal, Erling Haaland and Kylian Mbappe were also included in the forward line, while Kane and his Bayern Munich teammate Michael Olise missed out. 2025 Ballon d'Or winner Ousmane Dembele was also excluded.

Yamal made history as the first player to be named in the team twice before turning 20.

The midfield features Jude Bellingham, Rodri and Vitinha. Pau Cubarsi, Achraf Hakimi and Nuno Mendes were selected in defence, while David Raya was named goalkeeper.
