Real Madrid midfielder Jude Bellingham has added another feather to his cap after being voted the 2024/25 England Men’s Senior Player of the Year by supporters.

The 22-year-old saw off competition from Arsenal’s Declan Rice and Bayern Munich’s Harry Kane to clinch the honour, becoming only the second player to win the award while plying his trade outside England.
The first to do so was Owen Hargreaves, who earned the accolade back in 2006 during his time with Bayern.
Bellingham’s influence on the international stage has continued to grow, with last season proving a defining one for the youngster. He featured in eight matches, playing a central role in England’s UEFA Nations League promotion under interim coach Lee Carsley last autumn, before carrying his form into the FIFA 2026 World Cup qualifiers under new boss Thomas Tuchel earlier this year.

The midfielder delivered when it mattered most: scoring in England’s 3-1 win over Greece at Wembley in October, producing a man-of-the-match display in the 5-0 demolition of the Republic of Ireland in November, and laying on a delightful assist for Myles Lewis-Skelly’s debut goal against Albania in March. He also created two more goals in the reverse fixture against Ireland.
Now widely regarded as the heartbeat of the Three Lions midfield, Bellingham’s creativity, drive, and composure continue to set him apart. For England fans, this award is not just recognition of a remarkable season, but also a glimpse of what could lie ahead as the 2026 World Cup edges closer.
Congratulations, @BellinghamJude 🏆
