Mohamed Salah has been named the 2024/25 EA SPORTS Player of the Season, marking a significant achievement as he becomes only the fifth player in Premier League history to win this prestigious award multiple times. Salah previously won it in the 2017/18 season and now joins an elite group, including Thierry Henry, Cristiano Ronaldo, Nemanja Vidic, and Kevin De Bruyne, who have accomplished the same feat.
Salah’s stellar season has propelled Liverpool to clinch their second Premier League title, with the forward scoring 28 goals—leading the league—and providing 18 assists, six more than any other player. Remarkably, entering the final day of the season, he stands on the brink of historic milestones, with a chance to be the first player to win the Golden Boot, Golden Playmaker, and Player of the Season award in a single campaign.
His extraordinary performance has set multiple records, including the most combined goals and assists in a 38-match season, with Salah achieving 46 goal involvements. While he is just one shy of the all-time Premier League record of 47, his contributions have established him as a crucial figure in Liverpool’s success.
At 32 years old, Salah continues to define his legacy, moving to third on Liverpool’s all-time scorers’ list with 244 goals. He has ascended to fifth in the Premier League’s all-time scoring charts with 185 goals, surpassing legendary players such as Sergio Aguero to become the highest-scoring overseas player in league history.
Salah’s recognition as Player of the Season was determined by a combination of public votes and insights from a panel of football experts, allowing him to top an impressive shortlist that included his Liverpool teammates and other standout players from the league. This win breaks a five-season streak where Manchester City players dominated the award.
Salah’s accomplishments reflect not only his individual talent but also his impact on his team’s success, inspiring both current players and future generations. As he prepares for the next season with renewed ambition, fans eagerly await the potential for even more historic achievements.
