The competition will be tight between five players who have had a successful season. The list of nominees includes the two current top scorers in the championship with Denkey (25 goals) and Amoura (17). The first took his team to the Champions Playoffs and the second impressed with his technical quality and his speed, participating in the very good regular phase of Saint-Gillois (21 victories in 30 matches).
The other three named also had a solid season. At 19 years old, Bilal El Khannouss is one of the keys to Genk's great start in the Champions Playoffs (3 goals and 6 assists this season). Capable of making the difference in tight matches and being able to shoot from anywhere on the pitch, Koita is the fifth top scorer in the championship (15 goals). Mandela was finally the strong man in the middle of Antwerp, in the league as well as in the Champions League and was called up to the Red Devils for the first time in October.
The ceremony will take place on May 13 at 7 p.m., at the Tangla hotel in Brussels. In 2023, Mike Trésor won the trophy before leaving Genk for Burnley.
