Great recognition for FC Bayern! Three players from the German record champions are in the running for a spot on the prestigious FIFPRO World 11.
Harry Kane, Michael Olise, and Dayot Upamecano have made it onto the official shortlist for the 2026 World 11. This makes them candidates for one of the most coveted individual awards in international soccer.
The FIFPRO World 11 is considered a special honor because the selection is made by professional soccer players. Unlike many other awards, the players themselves decide which of their colleagues have particularly impressed over the past year.
