League Two players put Chesterfield loan man Sammy Braybrooke up for top award

The skilful midfielder is one of six in the running for the PFA League Two Players’ Player of the Year 2025/26.

He is up against Swindon frontman Aaron Drinan, MK Dons striker Callum Paterson and the Bromley trio of Michael Cheek, Mitch Pinnock and Omar Sowunmi.

Players only vote for fellow players within their same league.

The nomination is further recognition for Braybooke, who was included in the League Two Team of the Season for his play in a successful loan stint with the Spireites since January and at Newport County before that.

Braybrooke has since returned to parent club Leicester, where he expected to challenge for a starting shirt in League One next season.

He has a year left on his contract there.

Chesterfield coach and former England international Kieron Dyer has predicted big things for the 22-year-old, calling him “the best midfielder in the league by a country mile”.

The PFA Awards take place on August 25.
