The prestigious award acknowledges Haaland's extraordinary performance throughout the year, during which he amassed an astounding 52 goals, playing a pivotal role in Manchester City's triumphant season.
This honor, chosen by his fellow professionals, affirms Haaland's exceptional abilities and contribution to his team's success.

Haaland's impact extended beyond domestic competition. He asserted his dominance as the top scorer in the Champions League, netting an impressive 12 goals. His contribution played an instrumental role in Manchester City securing their first-ever Champions League title. Moreover, his efforts aided his team in claiming the FA Cup and achieving an impressive treble, a feat achieved by only one other team in English football history.
The 23-year-old striker faced formidable competition for the award, including top performers like Harry Kane, Kevin De Bruyne, John Stones, Bukayo Saka, and Martin Odegaard. Haaland's prolific goal-scoring and the pivotal role he played in Manchester City's achievements clearly set him apart.
With his award in hand, Erling Haaland's focus is likely to remain on delivering exceptional performances for Manchester City. Fans eagerly anticipate witnessing his prowess once again as he prepares to take the field against Fulham in the upcoming match, where his goal-scoring prowess could further bolster his reputation as one of football's premier talents.
