Posted 11 hours 22 minutes ago

Mohamed Salah has officially been named the Premier League Best Player for the 2024/2025 season, securing the prestigious award through a combination of public votes and expert panel decisions. This marks Salah’s second time winning the honor, having first earned it during his impressive debut season in 2017/2018.

His achievement firmly places him among the Premier League’s all-time legends. Salah now matches the elite record of winning the award twice, a feat previously held by renowned players such as Thierry Henry, Cristiano Ronaldo, Nemanja Vidic, and Kevin De Bruyne.

No player has ever won the award three times, setting the stage for Salah’s ambition to make history in the upcoming season. With a new contract already signed, he is poised to become the first-ever three-time winner.

His total of 46 goal involvements in a 38-game format broke the existing record and brought him just one shy of the all-time record of 47, set in a 42-game season. At 32 years old, Salah also became the Premier League’s highest-scoring foreign player, surpassing Sergio Aguero’s 185 goals.

He now ranks just behind legendary English strikers Alan Shearer (260), Harry Kane (213), Wayne Rooney (208), and Andy Cole (187). Salah’s triumph came after beating tough competition from top contenders like Declan Rice, Alexander Isak, Bryan Mbeumo, Chris Wood, and Morgan Gibbs-White.

Even two of his Liverpool teammates, Virgil van Dijk and Ryan Gravenberch, were in the running. His victory breaks Manchester City’s five-season dominance in the award, previously held by players such as Phil Foden, Erling Haaland, and Kevin De Bruyne.
