Three Rangers stars have been named in the Europa League Team of the Season after a stunning run to Seville.

But Giovanni van Bronckhorst's men put in some stunning performances along the way - notably away in Germany to defeat Borussia Dortmund in their own backyard.

Rangers' run to the final was nothing short of sensational, with the Ibrox faithful travelling in their masses to Spain to show their support.

Skipper James Tavernier picked up the personal accolade as the tournament top goal scorer after netting a stunning seven times in the knockout stages of the competition.

His form earned him a spot in the Top XI for the tournament and he was joined by Ryan Kent and Calvin Bassey.

Bassey earned huge plaudits for his performance against Frankfurt and has really came into his own this season.

Kent has always shown just how talented he is on the biggest of stages and has earned a spot in the team with his two Ibrox team-mates.

Kevin Trapp - the man who denied Aaron Ramsey with a decisive save in the shootout - has been named in goal with fellow Frankfurt stars Filip Kostic, Rafael Santos Borré and Martin Hinteregger all included.

West Ham are represented by midfield enforcer Declan Rice while the much-talked about Christopher Nkunku earns his place in the side.

Europa League Team of the Season XI: Trapp, Dawson, Hinteregger, Bassey, Tavernier, Laimer, Rice, Kostic, Nkunku, Kent, Borre.
