Here are the six best players who made a significant impact in Gameweek 25.
6. Djed Spence (Tottenham)

Tottenham secured a vital win over Manchester United, and one of the key contributors was Djed Spence. The full-back has been a revelation since his return, demonstrating his defensive solidity and attacking energy.

5. Charly Alcaraz (Everton)

Everton’s new signing Charly Alcaraz wasted no time making an impact. The Argentine midfielder assisted Beto’s opener and later sealed the win with a composed finish inside the box.

3. Ethan Nwaneri (Arsenal)

At just 17 years old, Ethan Nwaneri continues to impress for Arsenal. Despite the Gunners’ struggles against Leicester, Nwaneri provided a moment of brilliance with an assist for Mikel Merino’s opening goal.
