Mohammed Salah who has dazzled in the English Premier League this season scoring a total of 17 league goals, just 1 behind top scorer Harry Kane who on Thursday was deservedly voted Africa’s best player in 2017 by current coaches and captain from every men’s national team in Africa.
The initial 30 nominees were reduced to just three which included fellow teammate Sadio Mane and Borussia Dortmund’s forward Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang. The Egyptian was able to edge out his other competitors' thanks to the fact that he helped his country Egypt qualify for the 2018 FIFA World Cup in Russia, a competition that had eluded them since 1990. He also helped his country to a second place finish at the 2017 CAF African Cup of Nations, losing out to Cameroon who were eventual champions.
The 25 year old soccer star is having the best season of his career. Will this translate to even bigger things in 2018? Salah will be playing with his National Team in the 2018 FIFA World Cup and his teammates must be thrilled to be playing with him as he is in the middle of his prime against the rest of the world.
Indeed, it was a wonderful year for Mohammed Salah and the award was well deserved. Congratulations to the 2017 African Player of the Year, Mohammed Salah.
Thank you for following @steemsports and you can follow me @timoshey
Salah has been nothing but inspirational this season especially with liverpool and he fully deserves that award.
I am really proud of the player salah has become and pained that chelsea let him go so cheaply without giving him any real chance. Even if they wanted to let him go , why did they not include a buy back clause, this is just one of mourinhos many blunders as manager of Chelsea
he really deserves it . scoring enough goals has proved him as a caf african player
Hopefully, he can take it one step further to the balon d'or.
Exelente post Saludos :)

This is one of those times where I can say a player deserved the award. This dude has had an awesome year qualifying his country for the world cup and leading scorer chart for his club. Great achievement
Yes, I agree with you. It was undisputed. Hope he can continue his fine form.
He should help liverpool this year to reach place in champions league
I want to believe that Liverpool will just edge out Tottenham and Arsenal for the fourth spot in the EPL.
Salah is an exceptional player in frighting form. I think he has found his feet and he'll continue to stride forward. He is having a sensational season!
I love the ease about his game. He doesn't try to force his play, just calmly slots in his goals. Such a fine player.
I agree. I think inside forward or even a striker suits him more than winger.
Yes. That is the role he plays at Liverpool. He's not always isolated on the wing but finds his way into the opposition box frequently. He even tries to nod the ball into the net atimes, says a lot about his positioning.
