The 2024 FIFPRO Women's World 11 was announced Monday, and featured a heavy England contingent - but no USWNT players.

Back-to-back Ballon d'Or winner Aitana Bonmati was named in the squad for the second time. England (22) have now surpassed the U.S. (20) as the leader in all-time Women’s World 11 country appearances.The World 11 is the only global football award decided exclusively by the players. Since 2015, FIFPRO has invited women's football players to choose their World 11. <a href="https://www.fifpro.org/en/supporting-players/player-influence/world11/bronze-earps-and-greenwood-react-to-world-11-wins" target="_blank">A record 7,000 women’s football players voted </a>for their team of the year.

WHAT HAPPENED?

Goalkeeper: Mary Earps (Manchester United/PSG)Defenders: Lucy Bronze (Barcelona/Chelsea), Olga Carmona (Real Madrid), Alex Greenwood (Manchester City)Midfielders: Aitana Bonmati (Barcelona), Alexia Putellas (Barcelona), Keira Walsh (Barcelona)Forwards: Barbra Banda (Shanghai Shengli/Orlando Pride), Linda Caicedo (Real Madrid), Lauren James (Chelsea), Marta (Brazil)

THE FULL TEAM

This is the first time in the nine year history of the women's award <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-us/lists/alex-morgan-megan-rapinoe-and-the-uswnt-stars-that-have-dominated-fifpro-s-women-s-world-11/blt03ba806fea316808" target="_blank">that no USWNT player has featured in the squad</a>. There is, however, an NWSL influence, with the Orlando Pride's championship winning duo of Marta and Banda leading the line.USWNT legend Alex Morgan was not voted into the side in her final round of eligibility after announcing her retirement earlier this year.

THE BIGGER PICTURE

There is a strong Liga F influence in the side, with six of the honorees either currently or former of a Spanish football side. Barcelona lead all teams with five honorees - including the entire midfield.

DID YOU KNOW?

The next round of players is set to be released in 12 months time. For many hopefuls, the next few months will feature a break, as the NWSL season doesn't start until early 2025.
