Tottenham's Harry Kane joins six Manchester United and three Chelsea players on FIFA team of the year shortlist

Harry Kane and Gareth Bale are the only British players included on a 55-man shortlist for a FIFA team of the year.

The FIFA FIFPro World11 2017 is decided by votes from around 25,000 professional footballers from 75 different countries.

Tottenham and England striker Kane has enjoyed a fine 2017, scoring 34 times in all competitions for club and country, while Welshman Bale won the Champions League and LaLiga with Real Madrid.

Despite the lack of British talent on the list, a total of 13 Premier League players made the cut, including six Manchester United players.
