Africa-Press – Ghana. <\/strong><\/span>Since its breakaway from the Football League in 1992, the Premier League has become one of the world’s most iconic sporting institutions.<\/p>\n

England’s top flight has regularly been seen as the biggest (if not best) domestic football competition in Europe ever since. It eventually became so massive that it didn’t even need a title sponsor anymore (thank you to Carling, Barclaycard and Barclays for your contributions to history).<\/p>\n

In keeping with that global fame, the Premier League announced the creation of a Hall of Fame back in 2020. Here’s everything you need to know about it.<\/p>\n

What is the Premier League Hall of Fame?<\/p>\n

The Premier League Hall of Fame is an online honour roll for players who have “an exceptional record of on-pitch success and have shown significant contribution” to the competition.<\/p>\n

At this time, there are no plans to make the Premier League Hall of Fame a physical entity like the English Football Hall of Fame at the National Football Museum. However, inductees do receive a special medallion acknowledging their place in it.<\/p>\n

Who’s in the Premier League Hall of Fame?<\/p>\n

As of 2022, 16 players have been inducted into the Premier League Hall of Fame.<\/p>\n

Class of 2021<\/p>\n

Alan Shearer<\/p>\n

Thierry Henry<\/p>\n

Eric Cantona<\/p>\n

Roy Keane<\/p>\n

Frank Lampard<\/p>\n

Dennis Bergkamp<\/p>\n

Steven Gerrard<\/p>\n

David Beckham<\/p>\n

Class of 2022<\/p>\n

Wayne Rooney<\/p>\n

Patrick Vieira<\/p>\n

Sergio Aguero<\/p>\n

Didier Drogba<\/p>\n

Vincent Kompany<\/p>\n

Peter Schmeichel<\/p>\n

Paul Scholes<\/p>\n

Ian Wright<\/p>\n

What’s the criteria to get into the Premier League Hall of Fame?<\/p>\n

In order to qualify for a place on the Premier League Hall of Fame shortlist, players must have met at least one of the following criteria:<\/p>\n

Played at least 250 games in the Premier League<\/p>\n

Played in at least 200 Premier League games for one club<\/p>\n

Been selected to any of the Team of the Decade or 20-Year Anniversary teams<\/p>\n

Won a Premier League Golden Boot or Golden Glove<\/p>\n

Been voted as Premier League Player of the Season<\/p>\n

Won three Premier League titles<\/p>\n

Scored at least 100 Premier League goals (outfielders)<\/p>\n

Recorded at least 100 Premier League clean sheets (goalkeepers)<\/p>\n

Players need to have retired to be nominated and only their performances in the Premier League are considered.<\/p>\n

How do you get inducted into the Premier League Hall of Fame?<\/p>\n

The Premier League decide on two certain inductees every year (Alan Shearer and Thierry Henry in 2021, Wayne Rooney and Patrick Vieira in 2022).<\/p>\n

They then release another list of players for a panel to vote on, while the public can also make their selections on the Premier League’s website and social channels.<\/p>\n
