Mohamed Salah has won the African Player of the Year award for the first time in his career after outstanding performances at both club and national team level for Egypt.

Overcoming strong opponents such as Sadio Mane and Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, Salah was honored to become the best African player in 2017.

Salah has been in excellent form for Liverpool, scoring 17 goals in just 21 games. At the national team level, he helped Egypt win the runner-up title at AFCON 2017 (Africa Cup of Nations).

Salah's brace against Congo in October sent the Pharaohs through to their first World Cup qualifier since 1990. Salah received the most votes from current African national team coaches and captains.

Meanwhile, Aubameyang scored 31 goals in 32 matches but did not receive much credit.
