Top 10 for Ben

Ben Davies has moved into the top 10 of our all-time appearance makers in the Premier League.

Our longest-serving current player - signed in the summer of 2014 - moved ahead of goalkeeper Ian Walker and into 10th on the list with his final two appearances of the 2024/25 campaign against Villa and Brighton, taking him up to 242. Hugo Lloris tops that list on 361, while Heung-Min Son is second and up to 333.

Meawhile, the Wales international defender - approaching a century of caps for his country, sitting on 94 ahead of World Cup qualifiers this week against Liechtenstein and Belgium - became only the 29th player to reach 350-plus appearances for us in all competitions last season, moving level with Darren Anderton on 358. That tally includes 73 in Europe - he's second behind Harry Kane's 76.
