Alan Shearer and Thierry Henry have become the first players to be inducted into the Premier League Hall of Fame.
The Hall of Fame is the highest individual honor awarded to players by the League and celebrates the talent and achievements of staunch professionals who have featured in the division since its creation in 1992.
Players who have already retired as of August 1, 2020, are eligible.
PL Hall of Fame recognizes players who have demonstrated an exceptional record of on-pitch success and have made important contributions to the football community.
Shearer still holds the record as the Premier League’s highest scorer with 260 goals in 441 appearances across 14 seasons is still the only player to have reached 100 Premier League goals for two different clubs.
Henry won the Golden Boot award, a record four times, and scored a club-record 175 Premier League goals in 258 appearances for Arsenal. He also surpassed Ian Wright’s total 185 goals in all competitions to become Arsenal’s all-time record scorer (with 228 goals) during his tenure in Arsenal.
