EPL: Haaland named PFA Players’ Player of the Year

Manchester City striker, Erling Haaland, has been named the PFA Players’ Player of the Year award on Tuesday.

This follows a stunning debut season with the Premier League champions.

Haaland scored 52 goals in all competitions as Pep Guardiola’s men won the Premier League, FA Cup and Champions League.

The 23-year-old saw off competition from team-mates John Stones and Kevin De Bruyne, as well as from Arsenal pair Bukayo Saka and Martin Odegaard and former Tottenham striker Harry Kane, now at Bayern Munich.

England and Aston Villa star Rachel Daly won the women’s prize, voted for by fellow players.

Organised by the Professional Footballers’ Association, the awards salute the best male and female players in English football in 2023.

Saka was voted the men’s Young Player of the Year while Chelsea’s Lauren James picked up the women’s award.

Daly and James were key performers for England in their run to the Women’s World Cup final, which ended in defeat against Spain earlier this month.
