Twelve current Premier League players, along with Harry Kane and Ilkay Gundogan, have been nominated for the 2023 Ballon d'Or.

In total, five Premier League clubs have at least one player up for the award, after the 30-man shortlist was revealed on Wednesday.

Manchester City lead the way with seven nominees, Erling Haaland, Kevin De Bruyne, Bernardo Silva, Julian Alvarez, Rodri, Ruben Dias and Josko Gvardiol.

Arsenal pair Bukayo Saka and Martin Odegaard are also on the shortlist, along with Liverpool winger Mohamed Salah, Man Utd's Andre Onana and Aston Villa goalkeeper Emiliano Martinez.

Those nominees will be seeking to become only the third Premier League player to win the award, after Liverpool's Michael Owen in 2001 and Cristiano Ronaldo for Man Utd in 2008.

Ramsdale and Ederson also recognised

Onana and Martinez are also up for the prestigious Yashin Trophy, awarded to the best goalkeeper, along with two other Premier League players, Arsenal's Aaron Ramsdale and Man City star Ederson.

The winners will be revealed during a ceremony on 30 October at the Theatre du Chatelet in Paris.
