Celtic trio Callum McGregor, Daizen Maeda and Nicolas Kuhn have been nominated for the PFA Scotland Premiership Player of the Year award.
They are shortlisted for the award, voted for by their fellow players, alongside Dundee striker Simon Murray.
Captain McGregor, who won the award in 2022, has continued to impress while leading the Hoops to their fourth successive title.
He has played in 31 of Celtic’s 34 league games so far this season, scoring eight goals.

Forward Maeda has thrived this season with 16 goals and nine assists in his 31 appearances, with Brendan Rodgers often favouring him in a central role following striker Kyogo Furuhashi’s departure in January.

Kuhn has made 29 league appearances for Celtic so far this season, scoring 12 goals with eight assists, with his best form arguably during the first half of their title-winning campaign.
Dundee’s Murray is level with Maeda as the duo chase the Premiership’s top scorer award, with the 33-year-old aiming to help the Dark Blues escape the relegation play-offs.
Simon Murray is the joint top goalscorer with Maeda, with 16 goals this season
Following his move from Ross County in the summer, the striker has featured in all of the club’s league games this season, scoring 16 goals.
Who could win the Young Player of the Year award?
Celtic also have a player nominated for this award with Arne Engels making the shortlist following his club-record £11m move from Augsburg last summer.
The 21-year-old midfielder has scored nine goals in 31 appearances this season, also providing five assists.
Engels joined Celtic for a record fee last summer
It has been a disappointing season for Rangers, but Hamza Igamane could pick up some silverware after an impressive debut season at Ibrox.
The 22-year-old striker, who joined on a five-year deal from Moroccan side AS Far Rabat, has netted 11 times in his 30 league appearances so far.
Hamza Igamane’s late strike that saw Rangers beat Celtic 3-2 in March has been shortlisted for goal of the season
Hearts striker James Wilson is the youngest of the nominees, with the high school pupil turning 18 in March.
James Wilson has scored five league goals this season, including this equaliser against Hibs in the Edinburgh derby at Easter Road
He has netted four times in the Premiership since scoring on his league debut against St Mirren last October.
Lennon Miller has continued to impress in midfield for Motherwell following his nomination last season, despite missing six league games with a fractured ankle.
Lennon Miller – who was called into the Scotland squad this season – has two goals and six assists to his name
The 18-year-old, who captained the Steelmen nine times this season, is under contract until next summer with the Fir Park club already rejecting bids from Serie A side Udinese.
Adams up for double award
PFA Scotland has also revealed the Women’s Player and Young Player of the Year awards shortlist, with Hibernian’s 21-year-old forward Eilidh Adams up for both prizes.
Celtic’s Emma Lawton, Katie Wilkinson of Rangers and Samantha van Diemen from Glasgow City are also nominated for the POTY prize.
Erin Husband of Hearts, Rangers’ Laura Berry and Hannah Jordan from the Spartans make up the Young Player shortlist.
Hibs are currently top of the SWPL, two points clear of Rangers with Glasgow City a further point behind.

Cicinho indica clube com status de “bucha” no Brasileirão: “Vai lutar para não cair”
Cicinho, comentarista do Jogo Aberto (Reprodução) Cicinho, após o desligamento de Fábio Carille, não ficou surpreso com a decisão do Vasco. Inicialmente, o ex-jogador sinalizou que o discurso atrelado ao nível do elenco cruz-maltino trouxe um impacto negativo para o trabalho. Agora, levando em conta o plantel “limitadíssimo”, houve um alerta sobre a luta contra o rebaixamento no Brasileirão que o próximo técnico vai encarar à frente do time carioca. “Novidade não é. O Vasco não tem um elenco competitivo como o presidente Pedrinho acha. O Carille abraçou essa bronca e aí sobra sempre para o treinador.”, disse Cicinho, no Jogo Aberto.

Loni jich přitom stihl 21, přičemž odehrál o jedenáct utkání méně.I tak na něj Vítkovice uplatnily po sezoně opci, přesto se obě strany po vzájemné dohodě rozešly.
