The festive period is decision time over who gets presents in their stocking and who gets a big lump of coal. Some Premier League players may find themselves in the latter category given their disciplinary record across 2025.

One player with the joint-most fouls across the year is a name many probably would not have expected – Bournemouth winger Antoine Semenyo.

Semenyo finds himself at the top of the rankings with 70 fouls committed in the Premier League in 2025, level with Sasa Lukic. The Fulham player is joined on the list by fellow combative midfielders Bruno Guimaraes, Joao Gomes and Moises Caicedo.

It is Chelsea's Caicedo who has the most yellow cards in the Premier League in 2025, with 11.

Lukic, Lucas Paqueta, Tyler Adams, Elliot Anderson and Andre all reached double figures across the year with 10 apiece.

At the other end of the spectrum, Tino Livramento is top of the 'nice' list among regular starters. The full-back has committed just seven fouls across 2025 in the Premier League, four fewer then second-placed Alex Iwobi.
