Gvardiol named 2024/25 Etihad Player of the Season | OneFootball

Josko Gvardiol has won your vote to be crowned the Etihad Player of the Season for 2024/25.

The Croatian beat both Kevin De Bruyne and Erling Haaland to win the award in just his second season at the Club.

Thousands of City fans had their say, but it was Gvardiol who collected almost half of the votes in the final shortlist after progressing through to the last three.

The 23-year-old played 53 games across all competitions this season – more than anyone else in Pep Guardiola’s squad.

Splitting his duties across left-back and centre-back, Gvardiol has been vital to City ever since arriving at the Club in the summer of 2023.

He found the net five times in the Premier League, including a stunning right-footed curler at Wolves that was named our Nissan Goal of the Month for October.

There was also a goal in the successful FA Cup semi-final meeting with Nottingham Forest to further his credentials as one of the most prolific defenders in world football.

Towards the end of the term, Gvardiol struck up an excellent partnership with Ruben Dias at the heart of the defence as we pushed towards our third-placed Premier League finish and subsequent Champions League qualification.

It is the first time he has won the Etihad Player of the Season vote, following in the footsteps of Phil Foden and Erling Haaland in the last two campaigns.

Kevin De Bruyne has previously dominated the award, winning it four times and equalling the Club record with former defender Richard Dunne.

Now, Gvardiol and the entire City squad are preparing to head to the USA for this summer’s FIFA Club World Cup.

Everyone at Manchester City would like to congratulate Josko on this award!
