SPOTY England teammates Chloe Kelly and Hannah Hampton are up against one another for BBC Sports Personality of the Year on a shortlist that also includes Lando Norris, Rory Mcllroy, Luke Littler and Ellie Kildunne.
-
Kelly and Hampton were at the centre of England's dramatic penalty shootout win over Spain in the Euro 2025 final, with Kelly scoring the winning spot-kick after Hampton had made two critical saves.
For Kelly, it came after a difficult period personally, but after leaving Manchester City for Arsenal within months she was a European champion and Champions League winner.
Hampton's heroics saw the Chelsea stopper win the Yashin Trophy for the world's best female goalkeeper at the Ballon d'Or awards.
