Arsenal have two stars nominated for the Professional Footballers’ Association (PFA) Player of the Year award.

The duo have made it onto a six-man shortlist which also includes former Tottenham striker Harry Kane, who has since moved to Bayern Munich.

England captain Kane scored 30 goals across 38 Premier League games last season and became Tottenham’s all-time record scorer.

Manchester City trio Erling Haaland, Kevin De Bruyne and John Stones have also made the list – which is voted by players – after their treble triumph last term.

Pep Guardiola’s side tasted glory in the Premier League, Champions League and the FA Cup in a historic campaign.

Haaland, in his first season at the Etihad, scored a remarkable 52 goals across 53 appearances in all competitions.

Midfielder De Bruyne and defender Stones played key roles in City’s success too and will be hoping to land the PFA Player of the Year award.

The two Arsenal players to make the list include Bukayo Saka and Martin Odegaard, who were instrumental in the Gunners’ title challenge last season.

Saka registered 14 goals and 11 assists in 38 Premier League games last term while Odegaard scored 15 times and provided eight assists across 37 matches.

Saka is also nominated for PFA Young Player of the Year with Arsenal team-mate Gabriel Martinelli on a list that also includes Haaland, Aston Villa’s Jacob Ramsey as well as Brighton’s Evan Ferguson and new Chelsea midfielder Moises Caicedo.
