The Best FIFA Men’s Goalkeeper 2025 Nominees Announced
FIFA has officially revealed the shortlist for The Best FIFA Men’s Goalkeeper 2025 award, showcasing eight of the finest goalkeepers in world football.
Among the nominees are Alisson Becker (Liverpool), Thibaut Courtois (Real Madrid), Gianluigi Donnarumma (Paris Saint-Germain/Manchester City), and Emiliano Martínez (Aston Villa). They are joined by Manuel Neuer (Bayern Munich), David Raya (Arsenal), Yann Sommer (Inter Milan), and Wojciech Szczęsny (Barcelona).
The shortlist was compiled by a panel of football experts, who selected these shot-stoppers based on their outstanding performances throughout the 2024/25 season. Fans, national team captains, coaches, and journalists will be able to cast their votes on FIFA’s official website.
The winner will be revealed during The Best FIFA Football Awards 2025 ceremony — an annual event that celebrates the most exceptional talents across men’s and women’s football, including players, coaches, and goalkeepers.
