Jonathan David wins first Concacaf Men’s Player of the Year Award | OneFootball

MIAMI – Canada and Juventus FC striker Jonathan David has been named the 2024/25 Concacaf Men’s Player of the Year, following an exceptional season for both club and country.

David becomes only the second Canadian to earn this honor, joining two-time winner Alphonso Davies, and further cementing his place among the region’s brightest stars.

The striker made history by becoming Canada’s all-time top scorer with 36 goals in 67 appearances, including the winning goal in the country’s 2-1 victory over the United States in the Concacaf Nations League Third Place Match. In total, David recorded four goals and three assists in eight appearances for Canada during the 2024/25 season.

At the club level, he scored seven UEFA Champions League goals for French side LOSC Lille, the most by a Concacaf player in a single edition of the tournament in the 21st century. David became Lille’s all-time top scorer in European competitions. David also netted 16 Ligue 1 goals, the fourth-most of any player in the league.

The 25-year-old closed a five-year chapter in France and joined Italian giants Juventus FC in July, signing a five-year contract in Turin. David has featured in nine Serie A matches and four UEFA Champions League bouts with the Bianconeri.

Firmly established as one of the faces of Canada’s current generation, and a standout among Concacaf’s global stars, Jonathan David will continue to be one of the top names to watch as The Reds co-host the 2026 FIFA World Cup.
