Mohamed Salah and Alessia Russo collect Football Writers' Association awards
Today at 12:35
Mohamed Salah admitted to worrying if he could hit his best form before helping propel Liverpool to their second Premier League title, as he collected his third Footballer of the Year award from the Football Writers' Association on Thursday.
Salah scored 28 goals during Liverpool's league campaign, and is the club's third all-time greatest goal scorer.
That record belongs to Ian Rush, who presented Salah with his FWA award – and said he hoped to see his own record broken. Arsenal's Alessia Russo collected the FWA's women's trophy, as the Gunners prepare to face Barcelona in Lisbon in Saturday's Women's Champions League final.
