It's him again! Liverpool & Egypt star Salah beats Mane & Aubamayang to African Player of the Year awarded by CAF for the second consecutive year.
It is the Egypt international's second African Player of the Year title to become the fourth African after El Hadji Diouf, Samuel Eto’o, Yaya Toure to win the award back to back.
The feat thwarts Aubameyang’s quest to add to his haul, with the Gabon international last winning the award in 2015.
The award caps yet another remarkable year for Salah, who secured boasts of 13 goals in the English Premier League to help the Reds lead the log.
The 26-year-old was named the Premier League Player of the Year and ranked high in Goal 50, Fifa Best Awards and Ballon d'Or.
Last season, he finished with 44 goals across all competitions and helped Jurgen Klopp’s men end as runners-up in the Champions League.
Also, he shrugged off a shoulder injury to feature in the 2018 Fifa World Cup where he scored two goals in two games.

Congratulations to Muhammad Salah! He truly deserved to win - his work ethic in the pitch is up there with the best. More of that, his success too is geared mainly because of down to earth nature. Proud of you #PrideOfArabs #PrideOfEgypt

salah the best player in liverpool. but he deserve a better team like barca real or juventus to win trophies because we all know that Liverpool are allergic to trophies. we all know what will happen at the end of the season.

No doubt he deserved to win it for a second time as he has done pretty well both at club n national side by being their main man for most of their games. Congrats to you Salah

Why? What does Salah have that Auba doesn't have? Misleading moments. Infact Mane offers Salah most of his chances.
