This year, the list has been whittled down to just 23 players from its usual 55.
One goalkeeper, three defenders, three midfielders and three strikers with the most votes will be selected for the world eleven while the final spot will be given to the outfield player with the next most votes outside the first ten.
The FIFPRO world eleven is voted for by professional footballers across the world, with each player selecting one goalkeeper, defender, midfielder and striker.
Chelsea and Paris Saint Germain dominate this year’s list with four players each but Liverpool forward Mohamed Salah is conspicuously missing from the list.
The final eleven will be revealed at The Best FIFA Football Awards ceremony on January 17.
