After the UEFA Champions League 2022/23 campaign ended last night, which saw Pep Guardiola's Manchester City become European champions for the first time in history, the tournament's best squad has been approved by the agency. European management announced this afternoon.
The 11-man squad consists of seven Manchester City players and has been met with fierce criticism from fans, largely due to the omission of Andre Onana, the Inter Milan goalkeeper, who has endured an outstanding campaign. color before ending it with a classy performance in the final against the British champions.
In the squad announced by UEFA, Real Madrid's Thibaut Courtois overtook the Inter Milan goalkeeper and the fans didn't understand it.
Last year, Courtois was part of this team and everyone praised him for his incredible achievement. But this year, it's pretty easy to see why fans aren't supportive of the decision to include him in the team. Andre Onana has made the most saves this season and also kept the most clean sheets as his side nearly lost the trophy to Manchester City.
Given these facts, it makes no sense for Courtois to catch this team before him.
