This Thursday, the Premier League unveiled the list of 7 players nominated for the title of player of the season. Erling Haaland, who has already won the FWA award for best player of the season given by the journalists, remains the big favorite to achieve a double.
6 days after being voted player of the season by the Association of Football Journalists (FWA), Erling Haaland finds himself again named in another individual award. This Thursday, the Premier League revealed the 7 nominees for the title of “EA Sports Player of the Season” in this 2022-2023 English championship. We therefore find the center forward of Manchester City, author of 36 achievements in the Premier League but also Kevin De Bruyne (Manchester City), Harry Kane (Tottenham), Martin Odegaard (Arsenal), Marcus Rashford (Manchester United), Bukayo Saka (Arsenal), and Kieran Trippier (Newcastle). This time, it is not the journalists who will vote but a panel of experts, with the participation of the public as well. The votes are open until May 22 while the winner will be known a few days later, on the 27th.
Towards a double for Haaland?

Voted best player of the season by the Football Journalists Association (FWA) with 82% of the vote – the largest margin in Premier League history – Erling Haaland looks on paper as the number one favorite in order to achieve a double in these individual awards. Indeed, it seems complicated to see another element being able to challenge him for the title. Author of 7 goals and 16 assists with Manchester City, who could win a 3rd consecutive Premier League this weekend against Chelsea, Kevin De Bruyne could have his say as he also knew how to shine in the collective of Pep Guardiola. Arsenal mastermind Martin Odegaard – 15 goals and 7 assists in the Premier League – will start from behind. Ditto for his teammate Bukayo Saka. Finally, there is little chance of seeing Harry Kane, Marcus Rashford or even Kieran Trippier triumph. Answer in a few days.
