@var.newsfut: FIFA has officially unveiled the Best XI of the 2025 Club World Cup, recognizing the most outstanding performers from a historic and action-packed tournament held across the United States. This year’s Team of the Tournament features a mix of established global superstars and rising young talents who left their mark on the expanded 32-team format. The chosen eleven reflect not just individual brilliance but also tactical impact, consistency, and leadership across all phases of the competition. Leading the lineup is Chelsea’s Cole Palmer, who was arguably the standout player of the tournament. The young English midfielder scored five goals, including a sensational brace in the final against Paris Saint-Germain, and contributed multiple assists throughout the campaign. His performances were not only instrumental in Chelsea’s title run but also demonstrated his maturity, vision, and composure under pressure. Palmer’s inclusion in the Team of the Tournament was widely expected and universally applauded. Joining him from Chelsea are João Pedro and Robert Sánchez. Pedro’s pace, creativity, and goal-scoring touch gave Chelsea a cutting edge in the final third, while goalkeeper Robert Sánchez earned his spot by keeping multiple clean sheets and making crucial saves, particularly during the knockout rounds. Chelsea’s representation in the Best XI underscores their dominance at this year’s Club World Cup, where they finished as the highest-scoring team with 17 goals and conceded just three. Paris Saint-Germain, the tournament runners-up, also had strong representation. Kylian Mbappé, despite being kept quiet in the final, scored four goals during the competition and remained a constant threat with his movement and acceleration. Midfielder Vitinha earned a midfield slot in the XI for his creative link-up play, high passing accuracy, and relentless energy across all matches. Other notable inclusions came from Bayern Munich and Al Ahly, two sides that impressed fans and analysts alike. Joshua Kimmich was selected for his commanding midfield displays and leadership during Bayern’s deep run into the tournament. Al Ahly’s standout defender Mohamed Abdelmonem earned a surprise spot in the back line after a string of solid performances that helped the Egyptian club reach the quarter-finals, making history in the process. The back four of the Team of the Tournament includes a blend of youth and experience. Alongside Abdelmonem, defenders like Chelsea’s Levi Colwill and Palmeiras' Murilo were recognized for their positional awareness, aerial dominance, and calmness under pressure. Reece James was also a late addition after his commanding performance in the final, where he played a key hybrid role and shut down PSG’s attacking threats on the right flank. #chelsea #colepalmer #vitinha #hakimi #colepalmer #pedroneto #neto #psg #clubworldcup #marquinhos #championsleague #FIFA #realmadridfc
