As 2024 draws to a close, it is time to look back on a season rich in emotions for LOSC, now under the leadership of Bruno Genesio. This year marked a turning point for the Mastiffs, both collectively and individually. Through several categories, we highlight the players, moments and performances that marked this great year 2024. The one discussed in this article is the title of defender of the year.
The Dogues Awards are an opportunity to celebrate the performances and highlights that marked the year 2024 at LOSC. From December 25 to December 31, supporters will have the opportunity to vote for their favorites in different categories, such as “Dog of the Year”, “Revelation of the Year” or “Goal of the Year”. Each fan can vote once per category, meaning every vote counts towards the most memorable players, matches and performances. The results of the votes will be revealed on January 1, 2025, to start the new year off right by paying tribute to those who marked the previous one.
Defensive solidity is a fundamental pillar of any great team. The “Defender of the Year” rewards the player who has distinguished himself by his self-sacrifice, his rigor and his influence in the LOSC back line in 2024.
Led by Alexsandro, Bafodé Diakité, Gabriel Gudmundsson and Tiago Santos, the Lille defense was one of the great weapons of the Dogues' very good year. But who will be the defender of the year?
