Mohamed Salah has been crowned men’s Footballer of the Year for the third time after his goals helped fire Liverpool to the Premier League title, with Arsenal and England striker Alessia Russo winning the women’s award for the first time.
The Egyptian has scored 28 goals and made 18 assists in the Premier League this season and has appeared in every game as Liverpool won a second title in five years under Arne Slot.
In the last 30 years, Cristiano Ronaldo is the only other Premier League player to have won the award on multiple occasions.
Salah is also the favourite to win the Premier League Player of the Season and Players’ Player of the Year awards.
Russo beat the Manchester City striker Khadija Shaw to the women’s award after scoring 22 goals across the Women’s Super League and Women’s Champions League this season.
The striker helped fire Arsenal into the Women’s Champions League final, where they will play Barcelona in Lisbon on 24 May.
