Like every other year, we'll follow the classic 4-3-3 formation for the FC 26 Team of the Year 2026 Prediction final XI list. We predict that Gianluigi Donnarumma deserves to be on the final list, considering his incredible contributions under the PSG and Manchester City banners.
Coming to the backline, Nuno Mendes, Virgil Van Dijk, William Saliba, and Achraf Hakimi played key roles in both attacking and defending aspects. Meanwhile, before discussing the other potential contenders, here's a list of footballers who have massive potential to be on the final list:
| Player Name | Predicted OVR | Club | Country |
|---|---|---|---|
| Gianluigi Donnarumma | 97 | Manchester City | Italy |
| Nuno Mendes | 97 | PSG | Portugal |
| Virgil Van Dijk | 98 | Livepool | Netherlands |
| William Saliba | 97 | Arsenal | France |
| Achraf Hakimi | 97 | PSG | Morocco |
| Vitinha | 96 | PSG | Portugal |
| Pedri | 97 | FC Barcelona | Spain |
| Jude Bellingham | 96 | Real Madrid | England |
| Ousmane Dembele | 98 | PSG | France |
| Kylian Mbappe | 98 | Real Madrid | France |
| Lamine Yamal | 97 | FC Barcelona | Spain |
| Raphinha (12th Man) | 95 | FC Barcelona | Brazil |
Coming to the midfield, we predict that PSG's Vitinha, Barcelona's Pedri, and Real Madrid's Jude Bellingham deserve the most recognition out of all the other nominees. As for the attackers, it's difficult to determine who would be on the front three as the competition's pretty stiff across Europe.
However, we predict that 2025 Ballon d'Or winner Ousmane Dembele, Real Madrid's French striker Kylian Mbappe, and Barcelona's wonderkid, Lamina Yamal, deserve to be on this list. Lastly, the 12th man will obviously be decided with an in-game vote. Our best guess is that Raphinha deserves to be on that list.
