The World 11 – which will consist of the one goalkeeper, four defenders, three midfielders and three forwards with the most nominations – will be unveiled by FIFA and FIFPro at a ceremony in London on Monday September 24.

FIFPro and its affiliated player associations asked professional footballers to pick a team from the best players in world football last season. It will include one goalkeeper, four defenders, three midfielders and three attackers who were the best at their position in 2017-18.

Once the 55 players have been selected, the XI will be unveiled by FIFA and FIFPro during the Best FIFA Football Awards ceremony in London on Sept. 24.

De Gea is joined by Paris Saint-Germain’s Gianluigi Buffon, Real Madrid duo Thibaut Courtois and Keylor Navas as well as Barcelona’s Marc-Andre ter Stegen. De Gea and Keylor Navas are on the list for the fourth time in a row while Buffon was named the No.1 goalkeeper last year.

This is the 14th edition of the World XI.
