Several Arsenal and Man City players may miss out on league medals
The Premier League title race between Arsenal and Manchester City is heating up, but not all squad members are guaranteed a winners’ medal. According to league rules, players must make at least five league appearances to automatically qualify for a medal. Some fringe and young players from both clubs are currently below this threshold. Club discretion may allow a few to receive medals, but this is not assured for everyone.
Match highlights
- Kepa Arrizabalaga has not played in a Premier League match for Arsenal this season and depends on club discretion for a medal.
- Max Dowman has made four league appearances and needs one more to qualify automatically.
- Marli Salmon and Tommy Setford have only featured in cup competitions and have no league appearances.
- At Manchester City, Mateo Kovacic and Max Alleyne are below the five-game requirement due to injuries and limited involvement.
- Young Manchester City players Reigan Heskey, Charlie Gray, and Ryan McAidoo have mainly played in cup competitions and have not met the league appearance threshold.
