Manchester City’s player of the season for 2020/21 has to be Australian midfielder Aaron Mooy. Since his arrival at the club from Huddersfield Town in the summer of 2018, he has consistently delivered the goods for both club and country.
Mooy has been a mainstay in the City midfield, playing in all but five of their league games this season and contributing to a team that has finished second in the Premier League. His ability to read the game and pick out a pass has been a key element of City’s attacking play, and he has also chipped in with four goals and two assists.
Off the pitch, his professionalism and dedication to the cause have been exemplary. He has earned the respect of both fans and teammates alike, with his energy and enthusiasm for the game being infectious. His commitment and determination has seen him make it to the final of the AFC Asian Cup with the Socceroos, and he has been rewarded with a new three-year contract extension at the club.
Aaron Mooy’s contribution to City’s success this season has been immense. He has been an ever-present in the midfield and has been instrumental in helping the team secure a top-four finish. He has been a leader both on and off the pitch, and his influence in the dressing room has been invaluable. The Aussie ace has proved his worth and deserves to be named Manchester City’s Player of the Season.
