Mohamed Salah was crowned the Premier League's Players' Player of the Year, with his incredible 41-goal debut season at Liverpool beating out strong competition from Manchester City's Kevin de Bruyne.
"It's a big honour. I've worked hard and I'm very happy to win it," Salah said at the ceremony on Sunday evening.
Salah matched a Premier League record tally for a single season by scoring his 31st league goal of the campaign in a 2-2 draw at West Brom on Saturday.
"You're comparing your name with some great names," he said, on the prospect of breaking the record.
"To break the Premier League record is something huge in England and all over in the world.
"There are still three games to go. I want to break this record."
"Maybe there are numbers better but for me he was the best. But it is my opinion, the opinions of the players could be different. But in the end, in summer time he will be at home being champion."
