FIFA World Cup has announced the men's and women's World XI squads for 2026.
Argentina's superstar Lionel Messi once again proved his great performance and popularity by making a place.
The 39-year-old Messi was selected by a vote of professional footballers from around the world. This is his record 18th appearance in the World XI.
He was last part of this team in 2023. Messi, who represents Inter Miami, is the only player in the men's team to be selected from a club outside of Europe.
The men's team featured Kylian Mbappe, Erling Haaland and Lamin Yamal in the forwards alongside Messi, while surprisingly Ballon d'Or winner Harry Kane and Ronaldo failed to make the cut.
