Salah Named FWA Footballer of the Year

The star footballer got 90% of the total votes to emerge winner.

The Egyptian has scored 33 goals and provided 23 assists across all competitions this season.

This tally includes 28 goals in the Premier League.

His performances helped the Reds clinch their 20th English top-flight title and they are now level with Manchester United for the most ever.

Salah’s team-mate Virgil van Dijk was his closest challenger, with the centre back finishing second in the voting.
