FPAI Indian Player of the Year
The FPAI Indian Player of the Year is an annual award given to an Indian player who is adjudged to have been the best of the season in Indian football. The award has been presented since the 2008–09 season and the winner is chosen by a vote amongst the members of the Football Players' Association of India (FPAI). Sunil Chhetri won the inaugural award in 2009. The women's category has also been introduced in 2022, with Anju Tamang being the first winner.
