FREE-SCORING HAALAND WINS FWA FOOTBALLER OF THE YEAR AWARD
Erling Haaland has been voted the Football Writers’ Association Men’s Footballer of the Year for 2022/23.
The free-scoring Manchester City forward received 82 per cent of the FWA vote, the biggest margin of victory since the Premier League began.
Arsenal winger Bukayo Saka finished as runner-up, with his Gunners team-mate Martin Odegaard third.
Haaland has contributed an incredible 51 goals in all competitions so far this season as Man City look to secure a historic treble.
The 22-year-old’s goals have come in just 47 appearances and his strike against West Ham earlier this month took him to 35 in the league, earning him the outright record for most goals in a Premier League campaign.
