Moroccan international Achraf Hakimi has been named in the 2026 FIFPRO Men’s World 11, joining the world’s leading footballers in a team selected by 19,806 professional players from 73 countries.
The Paris Saint-Germain defender was chosen alongside Barcelona’s Pau Cubarsi and PSG teammate Nuno Mendes in the three-man defense announced Monday by the international players’ union.
Hakimi is one of three PSG players selected, alongside Mendes and midfielder Vitinha.
The lineup also includes goalkeeper David Raya, midfielders Jude Bellingham and Rodri, and forwards Erling Haaland, Kylian Mbappe, Lionel Messi and Lamine Yamal.
Messi returned to the team for the first time since 2023, extending his record to 18 selections, while Yamal became the first player chosen twice before turning 20.
The vote assessed performances between August 4, 2025, and July 19, 2026, with players required to have appeared in at least 30 official matches.
