The FIFPRO World 11 are the best men’s and women’s teams of the year. FIFPRO invites all professional men’s and women’s footballers to compose the teams.

Initially known as the FIFPRO World 11, the award began in 2005 and celebrated the best football players as voted by their peers.

In 2009, FIFPRO partnered with FIFA, rebranding it as the FIFA FIFPRO World 11 while retaining its original format. From the 2024 edition onward, FIFPRO will independently manage the award, reverting to its original name, the FIFPRO World 11.

Lionel Messi has the most ever appearances in the FIFPRO World 11 with 17 overall, followed by Cristiano Ronaldo with 15.
