  • Cristiano Ronaldo leads the Staring XI of a football fan’s English Premier League team of the ongoing season
  • Fans are left divided after a Twitter user named five Manchester City stars and three Liverpool players in his PL team of the season
  • Chelsea defender Antonio Rudiger and Tottenham forward Son Heung-min are other players who made the list

A football fan has ripped the internet space apart when he decided to name his Premier League team of the season as it has gone viral on social media, SPORTbible reports.

A fan on Twitter with the handle @Calebmcfc has decided to name the players that make up his own PL team of the season public and Manchester City and Liverpool dominate.

Eight of the players in the Starting XI currently play for either of the clubs as five feature for Manchester City while three play for Liverpool.

Other stars that make up the list are Chelsea defender Antonio Rudiger, Tottenham forward Son Heung-min and Manchester United talisman Cristiano Ronaldo.

Check out the full team below.

Goalkeeper: Alisson Becker (Liverpool)

Right-back: Trent Alexander-Arnold (Liverpool)

Centre back: Ruben Dias (Manchester City)

Centre back: Antonio Rudiger (Chelsea)

Left-back: Joao Cancelo (Manchester City)

Central midfield: Rodri (Manchester City)

Central midfield: Kevin De Bruyne (Manchester City)

Central midfield: Phil Foden (Manchester City)

Right-wing: Mohamed Salah (Liverpool)

Striker: Cristiano Ronaldo (Manchester United)

Left wing: Son Heung-min (Tottenham Hotspur)

Alisson is arguably one of the best goalkeepers in world football right now and his inclusion in net makes sense.

Who are the leading scorers in the EPL this season?

Meanwhile, Liverpool star Mohamed Salah is leading the hunt for this season's Golden Boot in the Premier League.

The Egyptian forward has been in sensational form this term for the Reds despite enduring a slowdown in recent weeks.

Tottenham Hotspur forward Harry Kane clinched the award last term with 23 goals to his name, narrowly beating Salah to the gong.

Haaland agrees personal terms with Erling Haaland

Sports Brief earlier reported that English Premier League club Manchester City have reportedly agreed £500,000-a-week deal to sign Erling Haaland to make him the highest-paid footballer in England.

The Citizens are planning to trigger the striker’s £63million release clause at Bundesliga outfit Borussia Dortmund.

It was gathered the financial package has been approved by the Man City board and a five-year deal could be officially sealed in the next one week.
