Chelsea has opened voting for its men's Goal of the Season 2025/26, asking supporters to pick a winner from a 14-goal shortlist drawn from the last 12 months.
Fans are searching for the club’s best goal now because the vote is live and every contender—first team and academy alike—can be chosen by supporters on the Chelsea Official App and website.
Joao Pedro carries an outsized presence on the list: four of his strikes made the cut, including a strike against Napoli, a goal against Leeds, a goal at Villa Park and the goal that settled Chelsea’s FA Cup semi-final and booked the club’s place in the final.
The shortlist spans levels and competitions. It includes Pedro Neto’s long-range strike against West Ham United at the London Stadium and Moises Caicedo’s drives — one against Brentford and another against Liverpool — alongside a Reece James free-kick against Newcastle, Estevao’s goal against the Spanish champions in the UEFA Champions League and a Murray-Campbell finish in Chelsea’s UEFA Youth League opener against Bayern. There is also a Chelsea Under-21s effort scored from distance in a 4-0 Premier League 2 victory and a Kavuma-McQueen finish against the Royals.
Two facts complicate the vote: Pedro Neto and Moises Caicedo are both on the shortlist again despite having already won Chelsea’s men’s Goal of the Season in recent years—Neto in 2025 and Caicedo in 2024—so supporters must now decide whether to reward repeat winners or back fresh candidates. With Joao Pedro listed four times, his entries could either consolidate attention or split it, making the final tally hard to predict.
Supporters can cast their votes through the club’s platforms; the club has said the winner will be announced on the Chelsea Official App and website.

The immediate question Chelsea supporters will answer is simple and decisive: which single goal from this mixed 14-goal list will carry the club’s official Goal of the Season badge for 2025/26? With four entries from Pedro and nomination carryovers for Neto and Caicedo, the vote will reveal whether voters favour a player with multiple moments or a singular, standout strike.
