UCL Quarter Final 2026 First Leg Team of the Week- No Raya

The official Team of the Week of the Champions League quarter finals (first leg) has been announced, and there’s only one Premier League based player in it. Despite his heroics at the Alvalade against SCP, Arsenal goalkeeper David Raya misses out to German veteran Manuel Neuer, who was also excellent for Bayern against Real Madrid at the Bernabeu.

Not surprisingly, there is no Liverpool player in the TOTW after their disappointing 2-0 loss to Paris Saint-Germain.
