Harry Wilson wins Fulham Player of Season as Iwobi, Bassey miss top three
Fulham have named Welsh forward Harry Wilson as their 2025/26 Player of the Season after he secured 35.6% of the fan vote, finishing ahead of teammates Calvin Bassey (22.1%) and Raul Jimenez (13%). Super Eagles stars Alex Iwobi and Bassey missed the top three, despite Iwobi contributing four goals and three assists in 29 league appearances and Bassey retaining his starting role in defence. The Cottagers finished 11th in the Premier League, narrowly missing out on a UEFA Europa League spot after a poor run of results in the final weeks. With manager Marco Silva set to depart for Benfica, Fulham are preparing for a new era under an incoming head coach who is expected to bring tactical changes. For Nigerian supporters, the award highlights Wilson’s breakthrough season while confirming Iwobi and Bassey’s importance to the squad, but also raises questions about their future roles under a new manager. Will Iwobi and Bassey retain their starting places and continue to be key contributors for Fulham next season, or will they need to adapt to a different system and compete for limited spots under the new head coach?
