The 2024/25 PFA Team of The Year has been announced.
The 52nd year of the PFA Team of The Year awards.
There is the FWA (Football Writers) award but nobody cares about that one, it is only the ones picked by their fellow professionals that counts for both players and fans.
The individual award winners tonight were Mo Salah (PFA player of the year) and Morgan Rogers (PFA young player of the year).
The 2024/25 PFA Team of the year revealed as:
Sels (Forest)
Saliba (Arsenal)
Gabriel (Arsenal)
Van Dijk (Liverpool)
Gravenberch (Liverpool)
Mac Allister (Liverpool)
Rice (Arsenal)
Wood (Forest)
Isak (Newcastle United)
Salah (Liverpool)
So anyway, that got me looking back and it turns out with previous PFA Team of The Year awards these past 51 seasons before the 2022/23 one, there had been 13 different Newcastle players included, four of them in two separate seasons.
So now Alexander Isak becomes the 14th Newcastle player to make a PFA Team of the year.
