The International Federation of Football History and Statistics (IFFHS) selected the best football representatives in Concacaf during the year. In this sense, Ricardo Pepi took the distinction for the best sub player – 20 of the confederation. Without a doubt, the attacker is the new jewel of the USMNT.

On the other hand, Brenden Aaronson was selected as the best creative player in Concacaf. The American is a member of Red Bull Salzburg in the Austrian Bundesliga and was rewarded for his exceptional season. In addition, the circle is completed by Gregg Berhalter, chosen as the best national team coach of 2021.

The star of the season in Concacaf

For the IFFHS the best player of the year was the talented Canadian winger Alphonso Davies . The defender of 21 years old is one of the most coveted footballers in the world. In just half a season, Davies has participated in 22 matches with Bayern Munich in which he has been very influential. The full-back has provided up to 6 assists for the Bávaro team.

Despite a year with ups and downs, a couple of Mexicans managed to appear in this selection. Guillermo “Memo” Ochoa took the distinction for the best goalkeeper in Concacaf .
