Premier League predictions: 10 best goalkeepers of 2024/25 season

Alphonse Areola

The 2024/25 Premier League is underway, and with it comes the return of 90min’s Top 90 series, in which we rank who we think will be the best performing players of the season.

First up is our predictions for the top ten goalkeepers in the Premier League throughout the 2024/25 campaign.

From number ones fighting for Premier League survival, to ones aiming to win titles, there’s plenty of top talent between the sticks to choose from.

Here’s our picks for the ten best – ranked, of course.

The French goalkeeper was finally made the West Ham number one last season, and it’s fair to say that he grabbed the opportunity with both hands.

So far, those expectations look set to be fulfilled. The 22-year-old’s shot-stopping ability and adeptness on the ball have been key to Brighton’s solid start to the new campaign.

Ederson

Ederson was widely expected to leave Manchester City during the summer transfer window.

In the end, the Brazilian ended up stayed in the north of England and has seemingly reclaimed his number one spot back off of Stefan Ortega in the first few weeks of the campaign.

So why is the three-time Premier League Golden Glove winner so low on this list you ask?

Well, truthfully, his form hasn’t been particularly great for the last 12 months, with a few too many routine stops being made to look a bit too…
