The six-man list highlights a campaign shaped by tactical evolution, surprise breakthroughs, and renewed title battles across England’s top flight.

Guardiola and Arteta headline the list

Pep Guardiola leads the nominations once again after steering Manchester City through another demanding title challenge, as he targets a sixth Manager of the Season crown.

Close behind is Mikel Arteta, who has kept Arsenal firmly in the title conversation as they continue their push to end a 22-year wait for the Premier League trophy.

Carrick earns breakthrough recognition

One of the standout stories of the season is Michael Carrick, whose mid-season appointment at Manchester United sparked a dramatic turnaround. His influence has helped United secure a return to UEFA Champions League qualification places, earning him a surprise but deserved nomination.

Surprise packages and rising coaches

Andoni Iraola is also recognised after guiding AFC Bournemouth into contention for European qualification, powered by an impressive unbeaten run that has defined their season.

Elsewhere, Keith Andrews is nominated following an impressive debut campaign with Brentford, while Régis Le Bris earns praise for steering Sunderland A.F.C. into the top half of the table after their promotion.

— EA SPORTS FC (@EASPORTSFC) February 5, 2026

Brighton midfielder Yasin Ayari kicks off the list after a quietly impressive month. The 22-year-old has already surpassed last season’s goal and assist numbers, registering two goals and two assists in four January appearances.

At Manchester United, Patrick Dorgu caught the eye during a flawless month under interim boss Michael Carrick. Deployed high up the pitch, the winger found the net against Arsenal and Manchester City, while also providing an assist during Darren Fletcher’s brief spell in charge.

Chelsea’s Enzo Fernández delivered when it mattered most, scoring late winners against Manchester City and West Ham. His January return of three goals and one assist under Liam Rosenior highlighted his growing leadership role in midfield.

West Ham winger Crysencio Summerville rediscovered his scoring touch after a long drought. Having gone without a league goal since October 2024, the Dutchman struck in three consecutive matches against Chelsea, Tottenham Hotspur, and Sunderland.

Brentford striker Igor Thiago is chasing history, hoping to become the first player to win the award twice this season. He enjoyed a prolific month, scoring five goals, including a hat-trick against Everton and a brace against Sunderland.

Harry Wilson earns back-to-back nominations after another productive spell for Fulham. With goals against Chelsea, Brighton and Liverpool, the Welshman continues to push Marco Silva’s side toward European contention as his contract situation draws attention.

Completing the list is Florian Wirtz, who receives his first nomination since joining Liverpool. The German midfielder contributed three goals and one assist, standing out during a difficult month in which the Reds managed just one win from six league games.

Manager of the Month contenders

The managerial shortlist reflects dramatic turnarounds and impressive short-term impacts:

• Michael Carrick (Manchester United)
• Sean Dyche (Nottingham Forest)
• Andoni Iraola (Bournemouth)
• Liam Rosenior (Chelsea)

United interim boss Michael Carrick makes an immediate impression, guiding the Red Devils to back-to-back wins over Manchester City and Arsenal in his brief January spell.

At Nottingham Forest, Sean Dyche steadied the ship after a worrying run of four straight defeats. His side responded with two wins and a draw, suffering just one loss against Aston Villa.

Andoni Iraola also turned Bournemouth’s fortunes around. After enduring an 11-match winless run, the Cherries sparked into life with a dramatic 3–2 victory over Tottenham, followed by further wins against Liverpool and Wolves.

Chelsea’s Liam Rosenior rounds off the list after a dream start to his Premier League tenure. Victories over Brentford, Crystal Palace, and West Ham made him only the fourth English manager to win his first three league games.

With new names dominating both shortlists, January’s awards promise fresh winners and plenty of debate among fans before the final verdict is announced.

The 25-year-old has committed his future to the reigning champions, signing a long-term contract that will keep him at the Etihad Stadium until the summer of 2031. City triggered Semenyo’s release clause before the deadline, agreeing to a deal worth £62.5 million ($84m), with an additional £1.5m in performance-related bonuses potentially pushing the final figure higher.

The transfer represents a landmark moment for Bournemouth, as it stands as the biggest sale in the club’s history. Manchester City will spread the base fee across 24 monthly instalments, alongside the agreed add-ons.

Semenyo will don the number 42 shirt at City, a number previously worn by club legend Yaya Touré, who enjoyed an illustrious eight-year spell at the club and won three Premier League titles during his time in Manchester.

Speaking after completing the move, Semenyo could not hide his excitement about joining Pep Guardiola’s side.

“I am so proud to have joined Manchester City. I have watched City over the last decade under Pep Guardiola, and they have been the dominant team in the Premier League as well as achieving amazing things in the Champions League, FA Cup and League Cup. They have set the highest of standards and it’s a club with world-class players, world-class facilities and one of the greatest managers ever in Pep.

“I have so much scope for improvement, so to be at this club, at this stage of my career, is perfect for me. It’s a real privilege to be here. My best football is yet to come, I am sure of that. And City are in a great position – still involved in four competitions. I really feel I can help them have a strong second half of the season. The Etihad is my new home. I can’t wait to play in front of the fans here and I hope to show everyone what I can do.”

With standout performances across the board, this month’s nominees reflect just how unpredictable and thrilling the season has been so far.

While the managerial award is guaranteed to go to a third different winner, all eyes are on the players’ side, where a familiar name is looking to claim back-to-back honours among a stacked list of eight stars.

October 2025 Premier League Player of the Month Nominees

• Matty Cash (Aston Villa)
• Bruno Guimarães (Newcastle United)
• Erling Haaland (Manchester City)
• Junior Kroupi (Bournemouth)
• Bryan Mbeumo (Manchester United)

• Igor Thiago (Brentford)

Aston Villa’s Matty Cash was instrumental in his team’s October revival, producing match-winning moments at both ends of the pitch. His second goal of the season came in a statement win over Manchester City, following a decisive assist in the victory against Tottenham.

At Newcastle, Bruno Guimarães once again showed why he’s the heartbeat of Eddie Howe’s midfield. His long-range stunner against Nottingham Forest and a last-gasp winner versus Fulham ensured the Magpies’ steady climb up the table.

Erling Haaland, last month’s Player of the Month, continues to be a force of nature. Three goals in three games brought his total to 11 for the campaign — a figure that dwarfs his teammates’ combined tally. Few would bet against him doubling up on the award.

Over at Bournemouth, 19-year-old Junior Kroupi enjoyed a breakout month. The summer signing announced himself with a brace on his first Premier League start against Crystal Palace, then added another goal against Nottingham Forest to push the Cherries up to second place.

Manchester United’s Bryan Mbeumo has been a revelation under Ruben Amorim. With three goals and an assist, he led the Red Devils to a flawless October — their best run in months — and reignited belief among fans at Old Trafford.

For Nordi Mukiele, Sunderland’s surprise summer signing, October was about dominance and discipline. His defensive prowess was key to the Black Cats’ resilience, while his long throws caused chaos in opposing boxes — not to mention his crucial goal against Wolves.

Igor Thiago continued his hot streak for Brentford, adding two more goals to his tally and climbing to second in the Golden Boot race. His powerful display against West Ham and clinical penalty against Liverpool kept the Bees buzzing.

Finally, Jurriën Timber’s influence at Arsenal cannot be overstated. The Dutchman has reinvented himself as one of the league’s most consistent full-backs, anchoring a Gunners defence that didn’t concede a single goal all month — a record-breaking feat.

October 2025 Premier League Manager of the Month Nominees

• Ruben Amorim (Manchester United)
• Mikel Arteta (Arsenal)
• Unai Emery (Aston Villa)
• Andoni Iraola (Bournemouth)

Manchester United’s new boss, Ruben Amorim, makes his first appearance on the shortlist after guiding his side to three straight wins over Sunderland, Liverpool, and Brighton. The Portuguese tactician seems to be settling in fast, blending energy, structure, and attacking flair.

Meanwhile, Mikel Arteta continues to mastermind Arsenal’s push for the title. The Gunners finished October unbeaten, boasting the tightest defence in the league and holding a four-point lead at the top of the table.

For Unai Emery, the turnaround at Aston Villa has been remarkable. After a shaky start to the season, his side produced a perfect month — taking down Burnley, Tottenham, and even champions Manchester City — to surge back into form.

And then there’s Andoni Iraola, the architect of Bournemouth’s fairytale rise. The Cherries ended October sitting second in the Premier League, with wins over Fulham and Forest, plus a gutsy draw against Crystal Palace.

Bournemouth forward Justin Kluivert has officially entered the record books after being presented with a Guinness World Record certificate for scoring a hat-trick of penalties in a Premier League fixture.

The Dutchman made history on November 30, 2024, when he converted three spot-kicks in Bournemouth’s 4-2 victory over Wolves at Molineux, becoming the first player in Premier League history to achieve the feat. His rare accomplishment broke a record that had stood in English top-flight football since 1957.

Kluivert’s certificate confirms his unique achievement:
“The most penalties scored by a football (soccer) player in an English Premier League match is 3, and was achieved by Justin Kluivert (Netherlands) in Wolverhampton, West Midlands, UK, on 30 Nov 2024.”

The presentation took place at the Vitality Stadium ahead of Bournemouth’s 2-1 win over Brighton last weekend. While Kluivert came off the bench in that game — having recently slipped down the pecking order — he still proudly celebrated the milestone, describing it as a special moment in his career.

“That sounds beautiful,” Kluivert said. “To go in the history books – that’s amazing. I’m super happy with it.”

The record-breaking match also saw his teammate Evanilson set his own piece of history, becoming the first player in Premier League history to win three penalties in a single game.

Although Ken Barnes of Manchester City had scored three penalties against Everton in 1957, Kluivert remains the only player to achieve the feat in the Premier League era.

The 25-year-old forward has also carved out another unique distinction in European football, having scored in all six of Europe’s major leagues: England, Spain, Italy, Germany, France, and the Netherlands.

His certificate, which labels him as a “record holder” and “officially amazing,” now cements his place among football’s most unusual yet prestigious achievements.

Premier League champions Liverpool have bolstered their defensive ranks with the £40 million acquisition of Bournemouth left-back Milos Kerkez, pushing their summer transfer spend beyond the £200 million mark.

The 21-year-old Hungarian international has signed a five-year contract at Anfield, becoming the latest addition under new head coach Arne Slot.

Kerkez joins a growing list of big-money arrivals, including Jeremie Frimpong, secured for £29.5 million from Bayer Leverkusen, and his teammate Florian Wirtz, whose high-profile move could become a British record at a reported £116 million.

Goalkeeper Giorgi Mamardashvili is also set to officially arrive from Valencia on July 1 in a £29 million deal agreed last August, further solidifying Liverpool’s summer business as one of the most aggressive in the club’s history.

Speaking to Liverpool’s official website following his unveiling, a delighted Kerkez said:

“I’m really happy. It’s a real honour for me, a privilege to come to play for one of the biggest clubs in the world, [the] biggest club in England. I’m just really, really happy and excited.

“After this, I’ll go home and in my hometown enjoy a few days, and then I can’t really wait to come back and put the training kit on and start to train and prepare for the season.

“I’m going to give everything – absolutely everything – to win trophies with the club and to hopefully score some goals at Anfield. I can’t wait to hear the roar. And see you soon.”

Kerkez impressed during his debut Premier League season with Bournemouth, featuring in all 38 matches and contributing two goals and six assists. Liverpool had been monitoring the young left-back for some time, and the club’s interest intensified after former Bournemouth sporting director Richard Hughes, who initially brought Kerkez to England from AZ Alkmaar in 2023 took up the same role at Anfield last year.

Bournemouth, meanwhile, have moved swiftly to fill the void left by Kerkez, signing Adrien Truffert from Rennes earlier in June for an initial £10.1 million fee, potentially rising to £14.3 million with add-ons.

With Kerkez now officially a Red, Liverpool continue to shape a dynamic and youthful squad ahead of the 2025/26 campaign, sending a clear signal of their intent to defend their Premier League crown and challenge for further silverware on all fronts.

The upcoming campaign kicks off on Friday, August 15, with reigning champions Liverpool set to raise the curtain at Anfield in a home clash against Bournemouth, marking the start of Arne Slot’s title defence following his impressive debut season.

In a blockbuster encounter on opening weekend, Manchester United will welcome Arsenal to Old Trafford, promising early fireworks between two historical rivals.

Newly promoted Sunderland, returning to the Premier League for the first time since the 2016/17 season, begin their top-flight journey at the Stadium of Light against West Ham United on Saturday. Elsewhere, Championship winners Leeds United will face Everton under the lights on Monday night at Elland Road.

Burnley, who secured immediate promotion back to the Premier League, will travel to North London to face Europa League champions Tottenham Hotspur, with Thomas Frank making his Premier League debut as Spurs’ manager.

Meanwhile, Manchester City, fresh off a rare trophyless campaign, will aim to make a strong statement when they visit Wolverhampton Wanderers at Molineux.

The 2025/26 season will feature 380 matches, spread across 33 weekends and five midweek rounds, culminating on Sunday, May 24, 2026. The Premier League confirmed that the August 15 start date, coming 82 days after the end of the previous season, was chosen to maximize player recovery time.

In a significant shift, the league also announced improved player welfare measures during the hectic December period. No team will be required to play two matches within a 60-hour window over Christmas and New Year.

This season also marks the beginning of a new Premier League broadcast deal, with every match not falling within the traditional Saturday 3 p.m. blackout to be shown live by Sky Sports or TNT Sports, expanding access for fans across the globe.

To qualify for the award, which debuted in the 2019/20 season with Liverpool’s Trent Alexander-Arnold as its first recipient, players must have started the season aged 23 or younger.

Chelsea’s Cole Palmer, who scooped the prize last year, returns to the shortlist and could become only the second footballer to defend the title after Phil Foden’s consecutive wins in the 2020/21 and 2021/22 seasons.

The full nominee list includes

• Liam Delap (Ipswich Town)
• Anthony Elanga (Nottingham Forest)
• Ryan Gravenberch (Liverpool)
• Dean Huijsen (Bournemouth)
• Cole Palmer (Chelsea)
• Joao Pedro (Brighton & Hove Albion)
• Morgan Rogers (Aston Villa)
• William Saliba (Arsenal)

Despite Ipswich Town’s relegation, young striker Liam Delap has made history by becoming the first player from a relegated team to be nominated. Delap impressed with 12 goals and proved his mettle even as his side struggled. His individual brilliance hasn’t gone unnoticed, with top-flight clubs monitoring him closely.

From Nottingham Forest, winger Anthony Elanga earns his place thanks to a productive campaign that saw him deliver 10 assists and score six goals. His contributions were vital for Forest’s survival push, and he continues to cement his status as a consistent creator.

Liverpool’s Ryan Gravenberch, also nominated for the senior Player of the Season accolade, finds himself in contention here as well. The Dutchman has been instrumental in midfield, adapting seamlessly to a deeper role under new manager Arne Slot. His defensive prowess and tactical discipline played a key role in Liverpool’s title push.

Bournemouth’s Dean Huijsen is another standout. The Spanish centre-back, who is reportedly set for a big-money move to Real Madrid, capped off an excellent debut season in England by earning a deserved nomination. His commanding presence at the back has been a highlight for the Cherries.

Chelsea’s Cole Palmer continues to shine after last season’s breakout. While his numbers may not have matched last year’s heights, 15 goals and eight assists remain an impressive return. Only Bruno Fernandes has created more chances than Palmer this season.

Joao Pedro of Brighton has built a reputation as one of the Premier League’s brightest young forwards. The Brazilian, known for both his finishing and creativity, has also emerged as a reliable penalty taker. His performances have significantly increased his market value.

Aston Villa’s Morgan Rogers has blossomed under manager Unai Emery. Now a full England international, the 21-year-old midfielder has racked up eight goals and nine assists in what has been a standout campaign. With double digits in sight, Rogers is pushing for elite company.

Arsenal’s William Saliba rounds out the list. Widely praised as one of the league’s most dependable centre-backs, the French international helped marshal the Gunners’ formidable defence. He boasts a league-leading 79.5% success rate in one-on-one duels and was key to the side keeping 12 clean sheets.
