Midfield maestro Mokoena nets PSL Footballer of the Year award as Stellies duo impress
Teboho Mokoena capped a superb first full season with Mamelodi Sundowns by walking away with two PSL awards for the 2022/23 season, including the prestigious Footballer of the Season accolade.
The 26-year-old, who joined from rivals SuperSport United in January 2022, was the fulcrum of yet another successful league campaign for Masandawana, proving a versatile and commanding anchor in midfield, be it with some relentless marking or a deft touch to ignite his team's potent attacking arsenal.
He was also named Midfielder of the Season.
However, the players' favourite was Monnapule Saleng, the buccaneering Pirates winger whose 11 goals was instrumental in his side not becoming a blunt attacking force in the league.
