Jude Bellingham headlines the star-studded XI of players who have made the Champions League team of the season.
The England star played a key role in Real Madrid’s journey to glory as the Spanish giants claimed the crown with a 2-0 win over Borussia Dortmund at Wembley last weekend.
In his first season at the Santiago Bernabeu, Bellingham scored four goals and provided five assists in 11 games on their way to the final.

Beaten finalists Borussia Dortmund also have four players in the team of the year, including Gregor Kobel and Mats Hummel.
Also included are ex-Manchester United loan signing Marcel Sabitzer and Ian Maatsen.
Dutchman Maatsen joined Dortmund on loan from Chelsea in January and played a key part in their side having slotted into the side at left back.
As well as Paris Saint-Germain star Vitinha, England duo Harry Kane and Phil Foden also made the cut.
In addition to a stellar season in the Premier League, Foden scored five goals to help Man City into the Champions League quarter-final – a run that included a stunning strike against Real Madrid at the Bernabeu.
Meanwhile, Kane scored eight goals in 12 appearances for Bayern Munich in the Champions League to help them into the semi-finals where they were also beaten by Carlo Ancelotti‘s side.
