Juventus’ Buffon bags the goalkeeping spot, while Marcelo and Ramos are joined by former Juventus players Dani Alves and Leonardo Bonucci. In midfield, the La Liga trio of Kroos, Modric, and Iniesta is deployed. Finally, the forward spots are filled by the attacking trio a football devotee would love to witness, featuring Messi, Ronaldo, and Neymar.
The most anticipated part of the evening will undoubtedly be to see who among Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi will be able to bag the top prize after enjoying yet another spectacular individual campaigns.
