2025/26 Premier League awards: Who won the Golden Boot, Golden Glove & Playmaker prizes?

The 2025/26 Premier League season is over, with Arsenal crowned champions for the first time since 2003/04.

Mikel Arteta’s men lifted the trophy on the final day at Selhurst Park, having been confirmed as winners days earlier as Bournemouth held Manchester City to a draw.

Arsenal amassed 85 points to Man City’s 78, while scoring 71 goals and conceding a league-best 27, with their defence undoubtedly fuelling their 14th English title success.

But who were the individual winners from the campaign? Here is how the race for the Golden Boot, Golden Glove and Playmaker awards panned out.

Erling Haaland suffered a serious dip in form post-Christmas, netting just three goals in 13 games between 27th December and 12th April. However, his form either side of that blip was so strong that he still won the Golden Boot by five goals, netting 27 times in 35 appearances. This is the Norwegian’s third Premier League Golden Boot in four years.

Haaland was one of just two players in this season’s Premier League to break the 20-goal mark, with Brentford’s Igor Thiago enjoying a stunning 22-goal haul, though eight of those were penalties.

Man City teammate Antoine Semenyo managed 17 goals for the Cityzens and Bournemouth combined, with Aston Villa’s Ollie Watkins next on 16. The top five was then completed with a 15-goal tie between Joao Pedro and Morgan Gibbs-White.

Watkins was the highest English goalscorer in the Premier League this season, but he and Gibbs-White were just two in a host of domestic players who enjoyed strong seasons in the penalty area, with Dominic Calvert-Lewin scoring 14 goals and a resurgent Danny Welbeck grabbing 13.

As mentioned, Arsenal’s title was definitely driven by their elite defensive record, but while it was undoubtedly a team effort, it’s David Raya who will take the glory with the Golden Glove.

The Spanish goalkeeper kept a whopping 19 clean sheets to scoop the prize for the third year running and outright for the second time in three years, having shared it with Nottingham Forest’s Matz Sels last year.

Raya’s closest challenger was Gianluigi Donnarumma on 15, while England stars Jordan Pickford and Dean Henderson joined Bournemouth’s Djordje Petrovic in a trio on 11.

The final three goalkeepers to reach double-figure clean sheets were Caoimhin Kelleher, Robin Roefs and Bart Verbruggen, who all kept 10 each.

You probably already know by now that Bruno Fernandes swept the Playmaker of the Season award for 2025/26, providing an astounding 21 assists for his teammates.

That was enough to keep him nine clear of any other player in the top-flight, with Manchester City’s Rayan Cherki and West Ham’s Jarrod Bowen the only other two to reach double figures on 12 and 11, respectively. The latter’s total was all the more impressive given his side were relegated.

But more importantly, Fernandes has now set a new record for assists in a single season, surpassing the 20 assists tallied by Kevin De Bruyne in 2019/20 and Thierry Henry in 2002/03.

Fernandes paired those assists with nine goals, registering 30 direct goal involvements in a single Premier League campaign for the first time since his first full season at Old Trafford in 2020/21.

While nowhere near winning the Playmaker award, Erling Haaland was another notable name on the list, finishing fourth with eight assists. That equals his debut campaign as a Man City player for the most he’s managed in a single Premier League season, while ensuring Haaland finished above Fernandes at the top of the table for combined goal involvements (35).
