Ligue 1 POTY: Who deserves to win player of the year for 2020/21?

The nominees for Ligue 1 player of the season have been announced, with Paris Saint-Germain, Lille, AS Monaco and Lyon players all involved.

While the Ligue 1 title race is yet to reach its conclusion, Lille remain three points ahead of Paris Saint-Germain with just two games remaining.

The latter do have a significantly improved goal difference, so any slip up from Christophe Galtier’s side could change everything.

Who are the nominees

  • Neymar (PSG)
  • Kylian Mbappe (PSG)
  • Memphis Depay (Lyon)
  • Wissam Ben Yedder (Monaco)
  • Burak Yilmaz (Lille)

Neymar

Starting with Brazilian star Neymar, it is quite frankly a surprise to see him on this list.
