Real Madrid's Dani Carvajal and Antonio Rudiger team up with Liverpool star Virgil van Dijk in defence.

City talisman Kevin De Bruyne covers the right flank with Real and England star Jude Bellingham on the other side.

The Citizens' star and Ballon d'Or winner Rodri teams up with Toni Kroos, who recently retired after a brilliant season with Los Blancos.
