The Professional Footballers’ Association (PFA) have confirmed its six nominees for the annual Premier League Player of the Season Award, with two Liverpool players among the shortlist, although Virgil van Dijk and Ryan Gravenberch have been surprisingly omitted.

Alexis Mac Allister and Mohamed Salah have been chosen by their fellow professionals as candidates for the annual prize, which is voted for by Premier League players.

They will face competition from Arsenal’s Declan Rice, who was the Gunners' standout player as they again finished second.

Cole Palmer was another shock decision given the Chelsea star’s underwhelming form in the second half of the season.

Both played in 37 of Liverpool’s league matches this season and were nominated for the equivalent Premier League award.
