EPL 2023/24: Paul Merson predicts players to win Player of the Season, Golden Boot

Arsenal legend, Paul Merson has predicted the player that would win the 2023/24 Premier League Player of the Year.

Merson also predicted the player that would win the Golden Boot award for the top scorer in the 2023/24 Premier League campaign.

Recall that Manchester City’s Erling Haaland won both the Premier League Player of the Year and Golden Boot awards last season.

The 2023/24 Premier League season will kick off in August and twenty English clubs, including reigning champions Manchester City, will be battling for the English top-flight league title.

Speaking on who will win the Premier League Golden Boot, Merson was quoted by Sportskeeda as saying: “I am going to go with Harry Kane for the Premier League Golden Boot next season. Erling Haaland stopped scoring goals towards the end of last season, didn’t he? I am not sure if teams have snuffed him out. Harry Kane’s record has been incredible. He got to 30 goals last season without scoring four goals a game. What he’s done is phenomenal in my opinion and if he does go to Manchester United, I don’t see how he doesn’t win the Golden Boot.”

Speaking on who will win the Premier League Player of the Year, Merson added, “You have got to go with someone who is going to win the Premier League title to win the Player of the Season award, and I’m going to back Jack Grealish to clinch it. With his performances last season, I believe he’s paid back his transfer fee already.”
