Football News24/7 Ever since the Premier League formed in 1992, players from abroad have decided to move to England with increasing regularity. Premier League clubs now seem keen to buy foreign imports rather than develop their own young talent. While most players currently plying their trade in English football are from Europe there are, of course, many players that are from outside of the continent. So, what would a Premier League XI look like consisting of players from outside of Europe? We have taken a look and it would still form a world class team. To fit players in we have decided to go with a very attacking three at the back formation. While the selected team may be fragile in defence, the attack is just special... Formation: 3-5-2 GK: Alisson Becker The goalkeeping spot was a tough decision between Alisson and Ederson, but the former just gets the nod. Alisson has been tremendous this season. The goalkeeping position has been problematic for Liverpool for much of this decade, but their decision to splash £66.8 million on Alisson has proven to be a masterstroke. He's been key as Liverpool have managed the best defence in the Premier League this season; having conceded just 14 goals from their opening 24 games. At 26 years old, he could be Liverpool's man between the sticks for the next decade. CB: Davinson Sanchez The Colombian defender is not a regular for Tottenham but he still makes the team. He's featured in 13 games this season, with Spurs conceding just 12 goals when he has been on the pitch. Sanchez has all the attributes needed to be a good defender; he's quick, strong and possesses good defensive skills. With Toby Alderweireld's future in doubt, he could well be a regular for Spurs next season. CB: David Luiz David Luiz was once a rash and unreliable defender, but he has matured with age. Himself and Antonio Rudiger have been able to form a strong partnership at the back for Chelsea this season. The Brazilian centre-back has played all 90 minutes in 23 games for Chelsea this term, with the club conceding 21 goals in the process. CB: Yerry Mina There isn't too many options to partner Luiz and Sanchez at the back, but Mina gets the nod. The Colombian defender was sensational at the 2018 World Cup; where he scored three times in his nation's run to the last 16. Those performances lead to a summer move to Everton but it hasn't materialised as of yet. Mina has been injured for much of his time at the club, having featured in just ten Premier League games. His performances seven months ago, though, means he warrants a place in this team. RM: Mohamed Salah Who else could be in the team at the right side of midfield? Mohamed Salah has been incredible since coming into the Premier League. He's scored 63 goals in 84 games since returning to England, an astonishing tally for a wide player. CM: Lucas Torreira Arsenal have needed a combative defensive midfielder for years and
