Following the huge success in the past season with more than 20,000 handball fans taking part in an online vote for the VELUX EHF Champions League All-star team 2012/13, fans have now the second opportunity to choose their new season all-stars.

From a selection of 32 players, four in each position and also the season’s best defensive player, fans are being asked to choose their own All-star team.

Players from 17 nations and from 14 clubs in the current season have been selected. Nine countries have a multiple representation with Denmark leading with six players. Both FC Barcelona and Rhein-Neckar Löwen have five players among nominees.

The vote will be open until Wednesday 28 May 2014. The fans’ choice for the All-star team will be announced on the eve of the VELUX EHF FINAL4 in Cologne on Friday 30 May 2014.
