5 players missing from the FIFPro XI nominees

#4 Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang

Aubameyang has scored 8 goals in 6 league games this season

There was no place either for the world’s most explosive striker. The Gabonese striker not only has electric pace to burn, he has the football brain to accompany it.

He’s a rare blend of speed, technical superiority and composure in front of goal. How a man that scored 40 goals in all competitions last season didn’t make it onto the list is bemusing.

There’s a reason why this man has been so heavily linked with Real Madrid over the past few windows and he’s the man who could take the Galacticos to a whole new level. He’s versatile and effective in all positions across the front three.

And as of today, there are not many strikers more clinical than him in front of goal.
