UEFA Champions League Team of the Season 2024/25 Revealed
UEFA has officially revealed the 2024/25 Champions League Team of the Season, and the message is clear: attack wins titles. The selection features a bold, offense-heavy lineup with only two central midfielders and a dynamic front four — reflecting the high-octane style that powered Paris Saint-Germain to their first-ever Champions League crown.
The UEFA technical observer panel explained their thinking:
"We've made this selection of players, particularly in the attack, to reflect the exceptional mobility which was such a feature of the victorious Paris Saint-Germain team's approach. The forward line selected represents this – a flexible team with attacking players who can interchange positions."
