Arsenal midfielder Declan Rice and Chelsea forward Lauren James shortlisted for PFA Player of the Year awards
The PFA has released the shortlists for its Men's and Women's Player of the Year awards.
In the men's category, three members of Arsenal's Premier League title-winning squad - Gabriel Magalhaes, David Raya and Declan Rice - make up half of the shortlist.
They are joined by Man Utd's Bruno Fernandes - who has already scooped the Football Writers Association Player of the Year award - and Man City duo Rayan Cherki and Erling Haaland - the latter of whom won his third Premier League Golden Boot award in 2025/26 after hitting 27 league goals.
In the women's category are Chelsea's Lauren James, Arsenal's Alessia Russo and 2023/24 winner Bunny Shaw - who signed a new four-year deal at Man City last month.
Shaw's team-mate Yui Hasegawa is also nominated alongside Jess Park of Manchester United and Aston Villa forward Kirsty Hanson.
