London: Liverpool dominated the six-man shortlist for English soccer’s player of the year award on Friday as the Premier League champions look to deliver a winner for the third straight season.
Virgil van Dijk, the center back who won the award last season, was joined on the list by teammates Trent Alexander-Arnold, Jordan Henderson and Sadio Mané.
Henderson has already been voted soccer writers’ player of the year for the 2019-20 season.
Manchester City players Kevin De Bruyne and Raheem Sterling complete the shortlist for the Professional Footballers’ Association award. City has never had a winner despite being winning four Premier League titles since 2012. The winner will be announced on Tuesday. (AP)
