Celtic trio nominated for PFA Scotland Player of the Year

Find out who has been shortlisted to win the PFA Scotland Player of the Year award in 2024/25.

PFA Scotland Player of the Year nominees

Callum McGregor (Celtic)

Winner of the PFA Scotland Player of the Year award in 2022, Celtic's Callum McGregor is once again in the running for the gong after skippering the Hoops to their fourth consecutive Scottish Premiership title.

An ever reliable midfield metronome, McGregor is a pivotal figure in Brendan Rodgers' engine room with the 31-year-old now a 10-time Scottish league title winner.

Nicolas Kuhn (Celtic)

German winger Nicolas Kuhn is the second Celtic player nominated for the top prize at the PFA Scotland Player of the Year awards with the 25-year-old having registered 12 goals and eight assists in the Scottish Premiership this term.

Formerly on the books of Ajax and Bayern Munich, Kuhn was particularly dazzling in the first half of the 2024/25 campaign, with his performances likely to have drawn admiring glances from clubs across Europe in search of fresh attacking options.

Daizen Maeda (Celtic)

Japan international Daizen Maeda is remarkably currently topping the standings for both goals and assists in the Scottish Premiership with 16 and nine respectively.

Signed by ex-Celtic boss Ange Postecoglou from Yokohama F. Marinos in his homeland in 2022, Maeda continues to go from strength to strength in Glasgow with his unrelenting energy and nose for goal making him one of the top players in the country.

Simon Murray (Dundee)

Dundee's Simon Murray completes the four-man shortlist for the PFA Scotland Player of the Year.

The 33-year-old Scotsman is currently joint-top goalscorer in Scotland's top flight alongside Celtic's Maeda with 16 to his name for a struggling Dundee side who are still battling against relegation.

PFA Scotland Young Player of the Year nominees

Arne Engels (Celtic)

21-year-old midfielder Arne Engels has been nominated for the PFA Scotland Young Player of the Year award in his debut season for Celtic.

Belgian Engels arrived at Celtic for a club-record £11m from Augsburg last summer and has recorded nine goals and five assists in the Scottish Premiership this term.

Hamza Igamane (Rangers)

22-year-old Moroccan forward Hamza Igamane arrived at Rangers as a largely unknown quantity from AS FAR in his homeland last summer and has landed a PFA Scotland Young Player of the Year nomination in his first season at Ibrox.

The skilful striker has notched 11 Scottish Premiership goals to date including a memorable winner against Old Firm rivals Celtic at Parkhead in March.

Lennon Miller (Motherwell)

Scotland youth international Lennon Miller is already a key player for Motherwell, with the technically gifted midfielder even captaining the team on occasion this season.

Miller's impressive form for the Steelmen has already prompted widespread transfer interest from clubs all across Europe, with a PFA Scotland Young Player of the Year nomination the latest in a growing line of accolades for the youngster who received his first senior Scotland call-up last month.

James Wilson (Hearts)

Hearts youngster James Wilson has capped off a breakout campaign with a first nomination for the PFA Scotland Young Player of the Year award.

Looking every bit a natural finisher, Wilson has struck five Scottish Premiership goals for the Jambos this season and was awarded with a first full Scotland call-up by national team manager Steve Clarke in March.
