On Wednesday the European Handball Federation (EHF) announced the winners of the EHF Excellence Awards 2025, recognising the best male handball players of the 2024/25 season.
Between 18 and 23 June, players, coaches, selected handball journalists, and fans took part in voting for the prestigious “Team of the Season.” Each group’s vote counted equally, with 25% influence on the final outcome.
For every playing position on the court — left wing, left back, centre back, right back, right wing, line player, goalkeeper, and defender — six nominees were chosen based on their performances during the season at both national team and club levels.
The Men’s Team of the Season 2024/25 is as follows:
Left wing: Emil Jakobsen (Denmark, SG Flensburg-Handewitt)
Left back: Felix Claar (Sweden, SC Magdeburg)
Centre back: Gisli Kristjansson (Iceland, SC Magdeburg)
Right back: Mathias Gidsel (Denmark, Füchse Berlin)
Right wing: Mario Sostaric (Croatia, OTP Bank – PICK Szeged)
Line player: Ludovic Fabregas (France, One Veszprém HC)
Goalkeeper: Emil Nielsen (Denmark, Barça)
Defender: Magnus Saugstrup (Denmark, SC Magdeburg)
