Premier League Announces Hall of Fame
...First 2 Inductees to Be Revealed March 19
Premier League has announced plans for a Hall of Fame to “recognise and celebrate” the competition’s best-ever players since its 1992 inception.
The first two inductees will be revealed at an event on March 19, a Premier League statement confirmed.
At the same event, a shortlist of nominees will be announced that fans will then be able to vote on to decide additional members of the Hall of Fame.
Premier League chief executive Richard Masters said: “A place in the Premier League Hall of Fame is reserved for the very best. It will be an occasion for our fans around the world to look back over the years and help us celebrate some truly exceptional playing careers.”
To be eligible for a spot in the Hall of Fame players must be retired, and only their Premier League careers will be assessed.
As a result, Ryan Giggs, the Premier League’s most decorated player with 13 titles, and Alan Shearer, all-time top goalscorer with 260, are being widely backed to be the first two inductees:
