Peter Schmeichel was the first goalkeeper to keep 100 clean sheets and Petr Čech is the only player to keep 200. Čech also took the fewest games to reach 100 clean sheets, holds the record for most clean sheets kept in a single season, with 24.
The award has been given out every season since the 2004/05 campaign. Petr Cech of Chelsea was the first winner, managing 24 clean sheets in that campaign for Chelsea — a figure that is still the single-season record in the competition.
The longest time played by a Premiership goalkeeper without conceding a goal is 1,311 minutes by Edwin Van der Sar (Netherlands) playing for Manchester United FC between 8 November 2008 and 4 March 2009.
Čech's 24 clean sheets in a single season remains the current record. Since 2005 Čech and Joe Hart have won the award on the most occasions with four successes each, with Čech the only goalkeeper to have won the award with two different teams (Chelsea and Arsenal).
De Gea holds the record for the most shutouts at the Red Devils, surpassing Peter Schmeichel (112) a while ago, but his departure in 2023 prevented him challenging those further up the list.
Former Spain goalkeeper Iker Casillas holds the record for the most clean sheets in the 21st century. Considered to be one of the greatest goalkeepers of all-time, Casillas kept 439 clean sheets in his professional football career.
Marc-Andre ter Stegen is having himself an amazing season and hit another new landmark on Saturday against Elche. The Germany international kept yet another clean sheet to make it 150 shut-outs during his career for the Catalan giants.
Edwin van der Sar, backed by the center-back pairing of Rio Ferdinand and Nemanja Vidic, formed a rock-solid backline. They kept 14 consecutive clean sheets together, a Premier League record that is yet to be broken.
