Salah Becomes First Premier League Player to Win PFA Footballer of the Year
Liverpool star Mohamed Salah has made history by becoming the first Premier League player to win the PFA Footballer of the Year award. The Egyptian forward now joins the elite company of two-time winners like Gareth Bale, Thierry Henry, and Cristiano Ronaldo, but he’s the first to achieve this feat in the Premier League era.
Earlier this year, Salah also claimed the Football Writers’ Association Footballer of the Year honor, cementing his incredible season. Salah’s campaign was nothing short of spectacular, netting 29 goals and providing 19 assists as Liverpool surged to the Premier League title.
He edged out teammates and rivals including Alexis Mac Allister, Chelsea’s Cole Palmer, Manchester United captain Bruno Fernandes, Arsenal’s Declan Rice, and Newcastle’s Alexander Isak. Reflecting on his achievement, Salah said, “Coming from Egypt and reaching this level, making history today, fills me with immense pride.”
Coventry City manager, Frank Lampard, speaks on team player and states how the player’s stance will help the team get into the Premier League.
The player is revealed to be Onyeka who he spoke about in the recent interview.
“He brings a different quality and probably a different profile to the midfield players we have.
“As I say, the profile is slightly different and I think that helps us in terms of the options and the competition in the middle of the park for us.”
Arsenal coach, Mikel Arteta, after their last match, shares an update on the injured team members after their last match.
He shared an update on Saka and stated that he is doing better after going through a hip injury. “His hip is improving a lot. Hopefully, he’ll be ready soon.”
He added about the other team members: “Martin is getting better and will be back in a few days, and Jurrien is fit for the weekend.”
Super Eagles footballer, Alex Iwobi, speaks on the World Cup and reveals their hope to play in the 2026 World Cup.
He shared that the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) is hopeful about hearing from them after they submitted a petition against the Democratic Republic of Congo.
“I mean we’re still waiting, well hopefully we can go to the World Cup, but I feel it’s a tough one.
“It’s a tough one because winning AFCON is like… It’s a great legacy, it’s a great thing to have in your career, a memorable moment. But then at the same time, because I’ve been to the World Cup already, a lot of the players haven’t been.”
