Six Premier League icons have been cut from this year's Hall of Fame nominees shortlist - including Matt Le Tissier and Patrice Evra - despite being named in last year's list.
The top flight announced a group of 15 legends who could be selected to join its exclusive Hall of Fame club - which kicked off in 2021 - with fans now invited to cast their votes to induct three players alongside 16 existing stars.
But there was a surprise after the Premier League revealed its shortlist after a group of notable names were absent following the reveal of a smaller line-up than usual.
