The selection process for the 2025 Ligue 1 Team of the Year is currently underway. Voting is open until Friday, focusing specifically on the central midfield roles, including both defensive anchors (holding players) and box-to-box operatives (`relayeurs`).
According to reports from L’Équipe, a comprehensive list of elite midfielders has been shortlisted for this prestigious recognition.
The nominations cover a range of compelling narratives. Benjamin André is highly regarded for his unmatched consistency at Lille, while Joao Neves has been instrumental in orchestrating the midfield for Paris Saint-Germain.
Vitinha stands out, having secured the Champions League trophy alongside five other major titles during 2025. Meanwhile, Tyler Morton has made a rapid and impressive impact at Lyon, and Adrien Thomasson has significantly contributed with one goal and five assists this season.
Fans are encouraged to cast their votes now to help shape the final eleven, with the selections for each positional group being progressively unveiled in the coming days.
