Egypt and Liverpool striker, Mo Salah, on Tuesday night won the 2018 CAF Player of the Year for the second time in a row.

The Egyptian had a wonderful 2017/2018 season, leading the Reds to a second place finish in the UEFA Champions League and grabbing the golden boot in the Premier League.

He also orchestrated Egypt’s qualification to the 2018 FIFA World Cup held in Russia last June.
