The FIFA FIFPRO World 11 are the best association football men's and women's teams of the year. FIFPRO invites all professional men's and women's footballers to compose the teams. Originally called FIFPRO World 11, in 2009, the world players' union joined hands with FIFA. While the format remained the same, the award name changed to the current "FIFA FIFPRO World 11".

Every year, FIFPRO and approximately 70 affiliated players unions distribute unique links that give players from all professional football clubs on the planet access to the digital voting platform. An initial 23-person squad then reveals the nominees. The goalkeeper, as well as the three defenders, three midfielders and three forwards who receive the most votes are then selected for the World 11. The remaining spot is assigned to the outfield player with the next highest number of votes who is not selected already. The 11-person FIFA FIFPRO World 11 is revealed at The Best FIFA Football Awards (formerly the FIFA Ballon d'Or).[1] Lionel Messi has the most ever appearances in the FIFPRO World 11 with 17 overall, followed by Cristiano Ronaldo with 15.[2] [3]

In 2014, FIFPRO launched a women's football committee.[4] In February 2016, the FIFPRO Women's World 11 was launched.[5] Players of 33 different nationalities in over 20 countries participated in voting for one goalkeeper, four defenders, three midfielders and three forwards.[6] As of 2019, the FIFPRO Women's World 11 is also revealed on stage during The Best FIFA Football Awards.[7]
