The voting period took into account a player’s performances at club and international level between August 2023 and July 2024.
“I’m proud to be in the FIFPRO World11,” said Van Dijk. “It means a lot because it’s voted for by your peers and it’s always a great feeling to get recognition in that way.
“It means a little bit more [being recognised by fellow professionals]. You play against these guys and they can definitely feel what kind of qualities you have and how difficult you can make it for them.
“It’s always a great feeling to be voted in the FIFPRO World11.”
