Lionel Messi and Sergio Ramos, the captains of Barcelona and Real Madrid respectively, have been included in the FIFA Team of the Year for 2020.
The two veteran players are the only Spain-based stars in the squad, dominated by the stars of Bayern Munich and Liverpool, with Spanish international Thiago Alcántara included.

Messi has remained an iconic star for the Catalan giants, for whom he has scored 642 goals in a total of 747 first-team appearances, including eight in 16 appearances this season.
The Argentine captain – whose uncertain future continues to dominate Barça today – continues to be fundamental for the Blaugrana.
The news from Real Madrid recently has focused on concern for the club in the post, especially when Ramos is absent, highlighting how Madrid have lost seven of their last nine games in Europe without the central defender.
With Ramos without a contract in the Spanish capital next summer and celebrating his 35th birthday in March, it is possible that Madrid are beginning to plan their lives without their talisman captain.
He has scored 100 goals in 660 appearances for Los Blancos and has won 22 trophies for the club, including five La Liga titles, including last season’s trophy, and four Champions League crowns.
