The PFA Scotland Premiership Team of the Year for the 2025-26 season has been unveiled, and the selections tell a compelling story of the campaign's standout performers. The XI, voted for by the players themselves, is overwhelmingly dominated by two clubs: Motherwell and Hearts.

Despite finishing fourth in the table, Motherwell lead the way with a remarkable five inclusions, a testament to their consistent excellence throughout the season. Hearts, who topped the Premiership, are close behind with four players selected, reinforcing their status as the league's premier team.

Motherwell's contingent is spearheaded by the league's top scorer, Tawanda Maswanhise, whose goalscoring exploits have earned him a well-deserved spot up front. He is joined by teammates Calum Ward in goal, defender Paul McGinn, and midfield duo Elliot Watt and Elijah Just, highlighting the Steelmen's strength across the pitch.

Hearts' representation is equally formidable. The defensive solidity provided by Craig Halkett and Harry Milne is recognized, while their devastating attacking partnership of Lawrence Shankland and Claudio Braga—who have combined for 33 goals in all competitions—rightfully takes its place in the forward line.

The final two spots in the prestigious lineup go to individuals from the Old Firm. Celtic's influential midfielder Benjamin Nygren, with 19 goals to his name this term, and Rangers' stalwart defender Emmanuel Fernandez complete a team brimming with quality.

This collective honor sets the stage for the upcoming individual awards, with the PFA Scotland Player of the Year nominees to be revealed later this month and the winners crowned on May 3rd.
