Fifpro World XI
Kenyan players continue to dream of global recognition as the Fifpro World XI highlights football’s ongoing gap in African representation.
African players have long shone on the global stage but their representation in the prestigious Fifpro Men’s World XI remains frustratingly scant.
The 2025 edition, voted on exclusively by professional footballers, has made this imbalance apparent once more. While the finest Europe had to offer dominated the line-up, no African player made the final cut-a fact that says a lot about the challenges still facing footballers from the continent.
This year's selection included young sensation Lamine Yamal, who made history as the youngest ever player to feature in the Men's World XI at just 18.


Hi! I see that Africa has become a hot spot for many gamblers these days. I bet on some events in Kenya myself. And I'd like to say that using 1xbet kenya casino is equally interesting. I didn't have to look for a new resource. I can play slot games and place bets in one place. By the way, bookmakers are much more strictly controlled than regular online casinos.
