The player awards that are characteristic of each season finale in the English league were held and although there may have been some doubt, the winner of the awards was no surprise. Manchester City won its fifth league title out of six played and this means that with this winner today, there are 3 players from Pep Guardiola's team who won the medal for best player of the season. Previously they were Kevin de Bruyne in the 2019/20 and 2021/22 seasons and Ruben Días in 2020/21.

Although it is logical that a champion's player is the one who wins the most important prizes, it is unusual for a player to combine two prizes in one as it was in this edition, since the young player and the best player were won by the same man. To win this award, the City player had to beat the other seven nominees, De Bruyne himself, Harry Kane, Martin Odegaard, Marcus Rashford, Bukayo Saka and Kieran Tripier.

Let's remember that this edition of the Premier League had the characteristic that it was largely led by Arteta's Arsenal and in the end, the citizens accelerated and not only caught up with them, but passed them to stay with the league.

Who is the prize winner?

Norwegian forward Erling Haaland of Manchester City is the winner of the year, he comes from lifting the Premier League and now he was honored with the medals as the best young player and the best player of the season in the English league.
Haaland has scored 36 goals after taking 123 shots, 60 of them on target, and has given eight assists, with this
