England forward Michelle Agyemang has been named among the nominees for both the 2025 Kopa Trophy and the Golden Girl award, cementing her status as one of football’s brightest young talents. The Arsenal striker, currently on loan at Brighton & Hove Albion, appears alongside emerging stars such as Lamine Yamal and Désiré Doué on the prestigious lists celebrating the best players under 21.
