China News Service, Beijing, May 23 Cairo News: On the evening of May 22 local time, the African footballer and Egyptian striker Mohamed Salah, who is currently playing for Premier League giant Liverpool, was selected as England's Best Male Football Player of the Year by the English Football Journalists Association.

England Male Football Player of the Year Award is one of the oldest individual football awards in the world, which was founded in 1948. Salah previously won the award in 2018 and 2022. With the third time this honor, Salah has also become the player with the most awards after French legend Henry.

English Football Journalists Association disclosed that Salah won 90% of the votes of more than 900 members, and there is no suspense to be elected. His teammate Van Dijk is second, with Newcastle striker Alexander Isaac in third.

So far, Salah has been the player with the most goals (28 goals) and assists (18 goals) in the Premier League this season and has played a key role in Liverpool's second championship victory in five years.

On April 11 this year, Salah successfully renewed his contract with Liverpool for two years to 2027, which also dispelled previous rumors about his transition to West Asian football. Previously, Salah also led Liverpool to win championships in the Champions League, Premier League, FA Cup, League Cup and Club World Cup. (End)
