Mohamed Salah headlines the six-player list and is the overwhelming favourite to win the award. The Liverpool winger led the Premier League for goals and assists in 2024/25, as the Reds won the title under Arne Slot.
His 47 goal involvements set a new record for a 38-game Premier League season. If successful, Salah will become the first player to win the PFA Player of the Year award three times, after previous successes in 2017/18 and 2021/22. He has already been named FWA Footballer of the Year.
Liverpool teammate Alexis Mac Allister is also on a shortlist dominated by midfielders. Arsenal midfielder Declan Rice and Manchester United captain Bruno Fernandes are each nominated.
