Youngster Myron Boadu leads race for Eridivise player of the year
Youngster Myron Boadu is pole position to win the prestigious Dutch Eridivise player of the year following his exploits on the 2019-20 season.
Due to the outbreak of the coronavirus, most of European football’s top leagues have ceased play.
Should the global pandemic instigate the cancellation of the leagues, the Player of the Year award in the Dutch Eridivise should be handed to the AZ Alkmar attacking sensation.
AZ’s midfield stalwart Teun Koopmeiners, Ajax stars Hakim Ziyech and Dusan Tadic, and Feyenoord’s Steven Berghuis are all in with a shout, but the 19-year-old self-confessed Manchester United fan has been the best so far.
Thus, 2019/20 is his first full season, and he is proving to be a brilliant, versatile performer, who is equally dangerous around the penalty area as inside it.
With 14 goals and six assists, his contribution is massive – and he is a big game player too.
He scored the last-minute winner against Ajax in December, and netted early against the champions again in AZ’s 2-0 win at Johan Cruyff Arena in March.
Those goals enabled the underdogs to dream of a sensational title triumph if the season is to be completed.
