Schottlands Fußballer des Jahres
# Schottlands Fußballer des Jahres

Der Titel Fußballer des Jahres wird in Schottland von zwei verschiedenen Organisationen verliehen. Die schottischen Fußball-Journalisten vergeben seit 1965 jährlich die Auszeichnung „Scottish Football Writers’ Association Footballer of the Year“. Die Mitglieder der schottischen Profifußballer-Gewerkschaft PFA bestimmen seit 1978 den Titel „Scottish PFA Players’ Player of the Year“.

Beide Titel können an alle in der Scottish Premier League aktiven Spieler – nicht nur an Schotten – vergeben werden. Der Journalistenpreis wird allgemein als höherwertig angesehen, wobei jedoch vor allem unter den Fußballspielern selbst die Auszeichnung durch die Spielerkollegen ein höheres Gewicht besitzt.
