The list of the finalists for next Tuesday's The Gram Collections Replay Gala Night was announced today during a press conference in Pieta'. Four finalists in each category have been named.
Voting took place in the latter part of May. A panel of 12 football correspondents selected their top five players, coaches or referees in nine categories. Their votes were carried forward to the final adjudicating phase, where a panel of eight other leading football pundits chose the nine winners.
As for the prestigious Top Star and Young Star Player Awards, there was a huge response from the players of all the Premier League teams. They were asked to name their top five players in both categories. All the Premier League coaches also voted for their colleagues in the Top Star Coach Award.
