YEN.com.gh explores the most good-looking stars in the English Premier League.

9. Mason Mount

Though his Southern accent and penchant for Ralph Lauren might not appeal to everyone, there's no denying Mason Mount's good looks.

The Manchester United midfielder effortlessly pulls off both a beard and a clean-shaven look, looks sharp with any hairstyle, and has a great sense of style.

His classic attractiveness might seem a bit too polished, and the nickname ‘Money Mase’ might be a bit much.

8. Fabian Schar

Fabian Schar, with his distinguished silver hair and captivating eyes, is the kind of player who defies type.

7. Virgil van Dijk

Like Mount, Virgil van Dijk’s attractiveness is almost unfair. How can a formidable defender look so striking and impeccably groomed?

It’s all in the hair—definitely the hair. Despite being annoyingly handsome and skilled, he clearly takes great care of his appearance.

6. John Stones

John Stones might seem a bit plain to some, but his charm is undeniable.

His devilishly handsome features, combined with his ball-playing skills, arm and thigh tattoos, and soothing Yorkshire accent, set him apart.

5. Alisson Becker

Brazilian goalkeeper Alisson Becker is a formidable presence on and off the pitch.

With his beard and occasional moustache, he exudes a rugged charm that makes him one of football’s most striking players.

He’s strikingly handsome and rugged, with a flair that’s evident.

The Portugal international is refined aftershave collection and overall appeal make him a favourite.

3. Ibrahima Konate

Entering the top three, Ibrahima Konate stands out with his six-foot-four frame and promising talent.

Liverpool’s towering centre-back is not just technically and physically gifted, but also frustratingly handsome.

His height is an added bonus, though his looks are almost too perfect.

2. Dominik Szoboszlai

Dominik Szoboszlai narrowly misses the top spot.

When he's not showcasing his midfield prowess, he’s striking poses that highlight his intense eyes, sharp jawline, tattoos, and perfectly tousled quiff.

His appeal was evident from the moment he joined Liverpool, capturing attention across social media.
