Football star Mohamed Salah honored as PFA Player of the Year for a historic third time by the Professional Footballers' Association
Liverpool's Mohamed Salah Secures Historic Hat-Trick of Awards
Mohamed Salah, the Egyptian forward for Liverpool Football Club, has made history in the 2022-2023 season by becoming the first player ever to collect all three major accolades in a single campaign.
Salah's contributions were pivotal in securing the Premier League title for Liverpool, finishing as the league's top scorer with 29 goals. He also claimed the Golden Boot and the Premier League Player of the Season award. To top it off, he was crowned the Professional Footballers' Association (PFA) Player of the Year for the third time, making him the first player to achieve this feat.
In addition to his goal-scoring prowess, Salah provided 18 assists in the season, demonstrating his all-round excellence on the pitch. His impressive performances earned him the Playmaker award as well.
Meanwhile, in the world of women's football, Arsenal's Mariona Caldentey shone brightly. She scored eight goals in the Champions League, including a hat-trick against Celtic, and helped Arsenal defeat her former club Barcelona to win the Champions League. Caldentey was named the Women's Player of the Year by the Professional Footballers' Association.
Aston Villa midfielder Morgan Rogers, another young talent to watch, was named the Young Player of the Year. Rogers scored eight league goals and netted four in the Champions League, including a hat-trick against Celtic.
Despite extensive search efforts, the exact women's footballer of the year at the Professional Footballers' Association from Arsenal's women's team could not be definitively identified in the search results. However, it is worth noting that Ann-Katrin Berger, formerly of Arsenal, has been recognized multiple times in the FA WSL PFA Team of the Year and was German Footballer of the Year in 2024 and 2025, though she has played for Gotham FC since 2024.
As the 2022-2023 season comes to a close, Liverpool finished 10 points clear of Arsenal, demonstrating the significant impact Salah has had on the team since joining in 2017. Salah recently signed a two-year contract extension with Liverpool, ensuring that fans can look forward to more of his exceptional performances in the future.
