The year is almost over and it is time to take stock of the best eleven that played in Portugal in 2025. After another season dominated by Sporting that ended with the lions' double, the choices largely reflect Rui Borges' eleven. However, the 2025/26 season brought some new faces that have already started to leave their mark on the clubs. The attack is practically indisputable with two rivals from the second round, the midfield made up of a mix of youth and experience, while in defense, the highlight is Rui Silva and Bednarek, players who brought security to Sporting and FC Porto. This eleven, formed in 4-2-2, brings some nostalgia for some big names who have now followed the European dream. Check out the best «national eleven» of the year in the associated gallery.
