Milos Ninkovic picked for FIFA 17's rest of world team of the season

A-League Johnny Warren Medallist Milos Ninkovic has received yet more recognition of his stellar Sydney FC campaign with inclusion in FIFA 17's rest of world team of the season.

EA Sports have been naming their FIFA 17 ultimate teams of the season featuring sides made up from the English Premier League, La Liga and Bundesliga among various others.

The rest of world team just released features Ninkovic in the first XI alongside the likes of Shakhtar Donetsk captain Darijo Srna and Shakhtar and Brazil attacker Taison.

Celtic star Scott Sinclair was named on the bench.

It comes after the 32-year-old Serbian, who scored nine goals and 11 assists on the way to Sydney's record-breaking premiership-championship double, was named the A-League's best overall player and swept his club's top gongs.

Ninkovic has spent the offseason back at home in Serbia but will return to Sydney for preseason training in early July.

Last month Socceroos star Aaron Mooy was listed among the reserves of the English football league team of the season for his outstanding role in helping Championship side Huddersfield Town gain Premier League promotion.

Ninkovic's Sky Blues teammates Rhyan Grant and Danny Vukovic were named in the community team of the season.
