Mo Salah Wins Standard Chartered Men’s Player of the Season 2024/25
For the fifth time in his illustrious Liverpool career, Mohamed Salah has been crowned the Standard Chartered Men’s Player of the Season .
The 2024-25 season wasn’t just another chapter in Salah’s Liverpool story; it was a defining one. At 32, when many players start to wind down, Salah appeared to hit yet another gear. His incredible tally of 29 goals and 18 assists in the Premier League was instrumental in driving the Reds to their second league title during his tenure. Those numbers also placed him among the very best in Europe and earned him a record-equalling fourth Premier League Golden Boot, putting him shoulder-to-shoulder with the likes of Thierry Henry in the annals of English football history.
But Salah didn’t just stop at scoring. His eye for a pass, composure in the final third, and awareness of teammates’ runs earned him his second Playmaker of the Season award, proving he’s as generous as he is lethal.
In recognition of this all-encompassing dominance, Salah was rightly named the Premier League Player of the Season for 2024-25. He also claimed the prestigious Football Writers’ Association (FWA) Footballer of the Year honor — a nod from the country’s sports journalists who recognized not just his stats, but the style and consistency with which he achieved them.
Across all competitions, Salah finished with an astounding 34 goals and 23 assists, numbers that sound like those from a video game rather than real life. His contributions were not only vital in lifting the league title but also in keeping Liverpool competitive on multiple fronts throughout a demanding campaign.
And now, having already claimed the club’s top individual honor in 2017-18, 2020-21, 2021-22, and 2023-24, Salah has done it again — clinching the Standard Chartered Men’s Player of the Season award for the fifth time, and for the second year running. In a squad packed with talent and hungry young stars, Salah continues to shine as the gold standard.
Week after week, he delivered. Salah earned the club’s Player of the Month award four times and was voted Player of the Match a staggering 14 times over the season — a clear indication of how often he was the difference-maker.
The tone for the season was set right from the opening weekend, when Liverpool traveled to newly promoted Ipswich Town. Salah, never one to start slow, marked the occasion with a goal and an assist in a professional 2-0 victory — a performance that hinted at the storm to come.
Off the pitch, he remains a leader. His influence in the dressing room is growing, his humility resonating with young talents and his work ethic setting the bar high. While the spotlight always follows him, Salah continues to carry it with grace and determination, focusing on results over recognition.
With eight years at Anfield under his belt, Salah has already cemented himself as one of the greatest players in Liverpool’s rich history. But if this past season is anything to go by, he isn’t slowing down — in fact, he may just be getting better.
