I break betting odds news as it happens, so you’re never left behind when the market moves or a top offer lands.
- Haaland, Salah, and Isak are joint 8/1 favourites to win the PFA Player of the Year award.
- Saka, Van Dijk, and Wirtz are all priced at 10/1 to challenge.
- The market looks one of the most competitive in years, with no clear frontrunner.
Haaland, Salah & Isak Joint Favourites
The new Premier League season is underway and bookmakers have already opened the betting on the PFA Player of the Year 25/26 award, with three players sharing joint favouritism at the top of the market.
Bet365’s latest odds put Erling Haaland, Mohamed Salah, and Alexander Isak all at 8/1, reflecting the difficulty in splitting the contenders at this early stage.
Manchester City striker Haaland remains a force in English football and is looking to win the award for the second time in his career.
The Norwegian forward previously was awarded PFA Player of the Year back in 22/23 in the season he fired City to the treble.
| PFA Player of the Year Winner 25/26 | Odds | Probability |
|---|---|---|
| Erling Haaland | 8/1 | 11.1% |
| Mohamed Salah | 8/1 | 11.1% |
| Alexander Isak | 8/1 | 11.1% |
| Floran Wirtz | 10/1 | 9.1% |
| Bukayo Saka | 10/1 | 9.1% |
| Virgil van Dijk | 10/1 | 9.1% |
Salah Still in the Frame
Liverpool’s talisman Mohamed Salah is also 8/1 to scoop the prize after he won last season's award.
With Arne Slot strengthening the Reds’ attack over the summer, Salah could thrive in a more fluid frontline and looks set to remain a central figure.
Florian Wirtz sitting behind Salah could mean that he has even more chances of scoring this season and that would help boost his chances of winning the award.
Alexander Isak has also moved into joint-favouritism at 8/1, with the new Liverpool forward tipped to make a big impact this season.
Other Contenders in the Market
Chasing the leading trio are three players priced at 10/1:
- Bukayo Saka, Arsenal’s poster boy and a player who continues to improve year-on-year.
- Virgil van Dijk, who could be pivotal in Liverpool’s title defence as their captain.
- Florian Wirtz, Liverpool’s big signing, who has already made waves with his performances in midfield.
All three look capable of forcing themselves into contention, particularly if their sides go deep in the title race.
