Juventus trio Gianluigi Buffon, Leonardo Bonucci and Miralem Pjanic have been included in the Champions League Squad of the Season.
The 18-man party was named by UEFA’s Technical Observers, although reaction on social media was mixed, with several tweets suggesting Giorgio Chiellini and Dani Alves deserved to be included.
The most represented club were unsurprisingly Real Madrid, who beat Juve 4-1 in the Champions League Final on Saturday and gave up eight players.
