It was a night of celebration for Manchester United goalkeeper David De Gea on Monday, as the Spaniard was named in the FIFA FIFPro World XI.
De Gea beat off fierce competition from Gianluigi Buffon, Thibaut Courtois, Keylor Navas and Marc-Andre ter Stegen to be selected in the side.
The United stopper enjoyed another superb campaign in 2017/18 and his 18 Premier League clean sheets ensured he won Golden Glove award for the first time in his career.
He also won the club’s Player of the Year Award in May, becoming the first Red to lift the Sir Matt Busby award on four separate occasions.
United stars Nemanja Matic, Paul Pogba and Romelu Lukaku were also shortlisted but unfortunately did not make the final team.

Goalkeeper: David De Gea
Defence: Dani Alves, Raphael Varane, Sergio Ramos, Marcelo
