Joe Hart has had a fairly successful stint in the Premier League. The Englishman has made nearly 350 appearances in the competition for four different clubs.

Now at Celtic, the 34-year-old custodian won two Premier League titles, both with Manchester City. Hart also kept at least ten clean sheets in seven consecutive campaigns.

Unsurprisingly, five of his seven penalty saves in the competition came while playing for the Cityzens, all coming in as many different campaigns.

Hart has denied the likes of Frank Lampard and Wayne Rooney from the spot in the Premier League. His last Premier League stop was that of Paul Pogba in 2018-19 when he played for Burnley.


#5 Lukasz Fabianski - 7

Lukasz Fabianski is one of the few goalkeepers on this list who are still active in the Premier League.

The Polish international has made nearly 300 appearances in the competition for three different clubs, with most of them coming from Swansea City. Although he debuted in the Premier League in 2007-08 with Arsenal, it would be almost a decade later (2016-17) when he saved his first penalty in the competition.

Since then, the 36-year-old has saved six more penalties in the English top flight, more than any other goalkeeper during this period.

The West Ham custodian kept out two penalties in the Premier League last season.


#4 Simon Mignolet - 8

Simon Mignolet enjoyed a productive, nearly decade-long stint in the Premier League. He made close to 250 appearances in the competition for two different clubs, keeping 80 clean sheets, most of them with Liverpool.

It was with the Anfield club that the Belgian also made his reputation as a penalty-stopper of repute. Although he was not in the Liverpool team that won the 2019-20 Premier League, Mignolet has had a fairly successful spell in the competition.

Mignolet's saved his last penalty in the Premier League against Leicester City's Jamie Vardy in 2017-18, a game Liverpool won 3-2.
