👑 Bellingham named England’s player of the year | OneFootball

Jude Bellingham has been named the 2024-25 Player of the Year for the English national team, in an award organized by the English Federation.

The Real Madrid midfielder won the fan vote, beating out Declan Rice and Harry Kane.

This is the first time the 22-year-old international has received this award and the second footballer to achieve it while playing for a foreign club, following Owen Hargreaves (Bayern Munich, 2006).

Bellingham played eight matches during the season, in which the Three Lions achieved promotion in the UEFA Nations League with Lee Carsley. Later, with Thomas Tuchel as coach, England got off to a good start in the European qualification phase for the FIFA 2026 World Cup.

The midfielder shone with decisive performances: he scored a goal against Greece at Wembley in October and was chosen as the player of the match in the resounding 5-0 victory over the Republic of Ireland in November. In addition, he showed flashes of his talent with a memorable assist to Myles Lewis-Skelly against Albania in March, and added two more assists in the match against Ireland.

The 2024-25 Women's Player of the Year award for the national team will be announced in the fall.
