Englands Fußballer des Jahres
Der Titel Fußballer des Jahres wird in England von zwei verschiedenen Organisationen verliehen. Die englischen Fußball-Journalisten vergeben seit 1948 jährlich die Auszeichnung Football Writers’ Association Footballer of the Year (FWA Footballer of the Year). Die Mitglieder der englischen Profifußballer-Gewerkschaft PFA bestimmen seit 1974 den Titel PFA Players’ Player of the Year und die Wahl des besten Jungprofis (für Spieler bis 23 Jahre) als PFA Young Player of the Year. Darüber hinaus organisiert die PFA seit 2001 jährlich eine Online-Wahl, um auch den englischen Fußballfans die Möglichkeit einzuräumen, ihren Spieler des Jahres zu wählen (PFA Fans’ Player of the Year).
Die genannten Titel können an alle in der Premier League aktiven Spieler – nicht nur an Engländer – vergeben werden. Tatsächlich zeichneten beispielsweise die Journalisten in den zehn Spielzeiten zwischen 1995 und 2004 neunmal ausländische Fußballer aus. Thierry Henry, der acht Jahre für den FC Arsenal spielte, ist bislang der einzige Spieler, der die Auszeichnung drei Mal gewinnen konnte. Cristiano Ronaldo wurde 2007 zum ersten portugiesischen Gewinner und zum ersten Spieler, der alle vier individuellen Auszeichnungen auf einmal abräumte. Auch Gareth Bale gewann 2013 alle Auszeichnungen, wobei jedoch der Fan-Award in diesem Jahr nicht vergeben wurde. Auch zwei deutsche Spieler wurden von den Journalisten gewählt: Der Torhüter Bert Trautmann im Jahr 1956 sowie der damals als „Diver“ bekannte Stürmer Jürgen Klinsmann im Jahr 1995. Zudem wurde Leroy Sané 2018 zum besten Nachwuchsspieler gewählt.
