Antonee Robinson has been nominated for US Soccer Player of the Year.

The award is considered to be the most prestigious honour given to American soccer players, with Fulham alumni Clint Dempsey and Kasey Keller winning the accolade on three occasions each.

2024 was an excellent year for Robinson, who represented the USMNT on no fewer than 11 occasions, earning his 50th cap for the States on his most recent appearance.

He played every minute as they won the CONCACAF Nations League in March, and was also ever present for this summer’s Copa América campaign.

The winner will be announced in January, with Robinson up against Christian Pulisic, Ricardo Pepi, Folarin Balogun, and his former Fulham teammate Tim Ream.
