Pepe Reina wearing a yellow long-sleeved goalkeeper's shirt with the Liverpool FC, Adidas and Carlsberg logos printed on the front, along with goalkeeper gloves, yellow shorts and socks, and white cleats.
Joe Hart – wearing a red long-sleeved goalkeeper's shirt of the England national football team featuring the "Three Lions" and Umbro logo, gold star and the number 1, along with red shorts and socks, and white cleats – looks towards the right while clutching a football in his right hand.
Pepe Reina (left) and Joe Hart (right) have won the most consecutive Golden Glove awards with three each.

The Premier League Golden Glove is an annual association football award presented to the goalkeeper who has kept the most clean sheets in the Premier League. For sponsorship purposes, it has been referred to as the Barclays Golden Glove since its inception during the 2004–05 season. Unlike the Premier League Golden Boot, which can be shared in the event of a tie,[1] the Golden Glove is won outright by a single player. Should there be a tie in the number of clean sheets, the goalkeeper with the superior clean sheets-to-games ratio receives the award.[2]

The Premier League was founded in 1992, when the clubs of the First Division left The Football League. They established a new commercially independent league in order to negotiate their own broadcast and sponsorship agreements.[3] Individual awards for players were soon created, with the Golden Boot presented at the end of the inaugural season,[4] and the Premier League Player of the Season award first bestowed the following season.[5][6] However, it took over a decade to elapse before the Premier League Golden Glove was first awarded in 2005.[7][8]

Pepe Reina, Joe Hart and Petr Čech have each won the award on three occasions, the most times out of all keepers.[7] Both Reina and Hart achieved this in three consecutive seasons, setting another record for most consecutive awards.[8][9] Čech set the record for most clean sheets in a single season – with 21 – to win the inaugural award in 2005.[10] This feat was equalled by Edwin van der Sar during the 2008–09 season,[11] who also surpassed Cech's previous record of 10 consecutive clean sheets by reaching 14.[12] During his streak, Van der Sar went 1,311 minutes without conceding a goal.[13] In the process, he broke Cech's Premier League record (1,025 minutes),[14] Steve Death's English football league record (1,103 minutes)[15] and the all-time league record in Britain (1,155 minutes)[16] for most consecutive scoreless minutes. Van der Sar's streak stands as the second longest in a European top football division – behind Dany Verlinden's 1,390 minutes – and the third longest in the world after Mazarópi's 1,816 minutes.[17] Petr Čech and Wojciech Szczęsny are the most recent players to win the award, in 2014 with 16 clean sheets in 34 and 37 matches respectively.[citation needed]
