UEFA Announce Team of the Year Nominees

UEFA Announce Team of the Year Nominees

Nov 13, 2024 11:46 PM

UEFA have revealed the nominees for the 2020 fans’ Team of the Year.

The 50-man list is comprised of five goalkeepers, 15 defenders, 15 midfielders, and 15 forwards.

Rather unsurprisingly, treble winners Bayern Munich are the most heavily represented side in the nominations, boasting ten candidates.

Runaway Premier League champions Liverpool and Champions League finalists Paris Saint Germain also hold a high percentage of the nominees, possessing eight candidates each.

It was a disappointing turn out from the La Liga giants, as Real Madrid and Barcelona only managed one nominee each, while Atletico Madrid had just two.

Germany were the most represented nation with six, with France one behind. Argentina, Portugal, England, Brazil, Spain, and the Netherlands all hold four each.

Juventus forward Cristiano Ronaldo is looking to extend his record at the top of the appearances chart, having featured in the UEFA Team of the Year an incredible 14 times, including every year since 2007.
