>> VOTING <<

Procedure of the election
First, five monthly winners will be determined. For this purpose, four players per month are nominated to take part in the voting. Due to less gamedays in September 2021, the first two months have been combined into one election. The five monthly winners will then compete in April 2022 for the title of "Opel & Beyschlag Young Star of the 2021/22 season".

The election consists of three components: in addition to the fan voting on the league homepage, the PULS24 experts, as well as journalists vote. If two or more players receive the same number of votes, they will be ranked according to the result of the fan vote.

Winner September/October | Benjamin Lanzinger (EC GRAND Immo VSV)
