Inaki Williams named LaLiga African MVP mid-season award winner

Black Stars forward, Inaki Williams, has been crowned the African Most Valuable Player (MVP) mid-season award in the 2022/23 LaLiga season.

The award recognizes the best African player in Spain’s top football league based on their performance in the first half of the season.

Inaki Williams beat out his Ghanaian compatriots Joseph Aidoo, Baba Iddrisu, Abdul Mumin, and several other African players who were nominated for the award.

They include Bono, Samuel Chukwueze, Youssef En-Nesyri, Franck Kessié, Ilaix Moriba, and others.

Williams, 28, has been in excellent form this season, scoring five goals and providing an assist in 18 appearances for Athletic Club Bilbao.

His impressive performance has earned him recognition as the top African player in La Liga mid-season.

Additionally, the Ghanaian forward holds the record for most consecutive games played in La Liga, featuring in 251 straight games, before he missed a match against Celta Vigo this past weekend due to a muscle injury.
