Manchester City star Erling Haaland has landed the Football Writers' Association Men's Footballer of the Year for 2022/23 after a stellar start to his Premier League career. Haaland, who is currently leading the PL charts for most goals scored, has bagged a tally of 35 and still has four matches to go in the season. Meanwhile, Chelsea’s Sam Kerr, for the second consecutive year, has landed the FWA Women's Footballer of the Year after yet another stellar season.

<h2>Haaland’s sensational 2022-23</h2>

Having signed from Borussia Dortmund in 2022, Haaland has taken the league by storm and looks set to win the Golden Boot with record number of goals. Recently he broke Alan Shearer and Andy Cole’s long-standing record for most goals in a season, having scored his 35th. The Norway international is a clear difference-maker in City’s season where they have also reached the final of the FA Cup.

<h2>Haaland’s impact in Champions League</h2>

While City have won the Premier League in tandem with four titles in five seasons, manager Pep Guardiola’s target is the Champions League. City have reached a third straight semifinal in the competition and are looking to win the prize asset for the first time. Haaland has made his presence felt in the competition with Real Madrid standing in their way for a final.

So far in the season, the 22-year-old has scored 51 goals in the season with 12 in the Champions League, three in FA Cup and one in League Cup. His numbers have helped City mount a challenge for an unprecedented treble at the end of the season.

<h2>Chelsea’s Kerr bags Women’s award</h2>

Chelsea’s Sam Kerr has bagged the Women’s FWA Player of the Season for 2022/23 after another great year. She won her second prize in as many years with an excellent return of 10 goals in 18 games in the WSL. She has so far scored 26 goals in 34 club matches in all competitions and earlier scored her 50th goal on English soil.

Erling Haaland lands Football Writers' Association Footballer of the Year; Sam Kerr wins Women's award

Brazilian soccer great Pele has collapsed with exhaustion and been forced to cancel a long-planned trip to London this weekend, the Football Writers Association (FWA) said on Friday.

The FWA was due to host a dinner in his honour at the Savoy hotel on Sunday but said the 77-year-old would not make it.

&quot;In the early hours of Thursday morning, Pele collapsed and was taken to hospital in Brazil where he has undergone a series of tests which appear to point to severe exhaustion,&quot; the FWA said in a statement.

&quot;He remains on fluids while doctors monitor his recovery. Thankfully, there is no suggestion of anything more serious than exhaustion.&quot;

Pele, who is the only player to win three World Cups, has been taken to hospital for kidney and prostrate problems in recent years and also underwent hip surgery.

Still considered the greatest player of all time, he appeared in a wheelchair at his last big international appearance in Moscow in December for the draw for the 2018 World Cup.
