Black Stars midfielder Thomas Partey has been named the Footballer of the Year at the maiden edition of the Ghana Football Awards in Accra.
Partey was also named the Foreign-based Footballer of the Year for the awards which recognised the exploits of Ghanaian footballers in the period under review (the 2017-2018 season) on Sunday night.
Partey, 25, made 52 appearances and scored five goals for Atletico as they bounced back from a UEFA Champions League group stage exit to win the UEFA Europa League.
Thomas (as Partey is known at Atletico) distinguished himself predominantly as a right fullback and in midfield for Diego Simeone’s side as they also finished second behind Barcelona in Spanish La Liga and exited the Cope del Rey at the quarter-final stage.
For the senior national team – the Black Stars – Partey tied down a spot as a regular in the team with some scintillating displays from midfield, netting his first career hat-trick in a 5-1 win over Congo in a 2018 World Cup qualifier in September 5, 2017.
He also captained the Black Stars in recent friendlies against Japan and Iceland in the absence of skipper Asamoah Gyan.
The first awardee of the night was Aduana Stars and Black Stars B goalie Joseph Addo who was named the Goalkeeper of the Year, who was recognized for his role in Ghana’s 2017 WAFU Zone B Cup triumph and league title success with Aduana in the Ghana Premier League. He edged goalies Razak Abalora and Richard Ofori to the award.
Addo’s club Aduana also emerged the Team of the Year and 20-year-old Majeed Ashimeru of Red Bull Salzburg pipped Princella Adubea (Dampen Darkoa Ladies) and David Abagna (Wa All Sars) to the Future Star of the Year award reserved for players aged 20 years or below.
