Erling Haaland received his first award for his excellent season.

The Norwegian was named the football writers' association's player of the year.

With just one round remaining in the Premier League season, E. Haaland has equaled Thierry Henry's record for goals scored and assists made in a single Premier League season.

Manchester City's forward directly contributed to the team's goals 44 times.

The 22-year-old Norwegian is a serious contender for the Ballon d'Or, especially if the "Cityzens" manage to triumph in the Champions League.
