Daizen Maeda is the William Hill Premiership Player of the Year | OneFootball

Daizen Maeda has been named the William Hill Premiership Player of the Year, adding to the awards he’s already picked up this season – the Celtic Player of the Year and the PFA Scotland Player of the Year.

The Japanese internationalist has enjoyed an outstanding season, helping the Hoops win the League Cup and the Premiership title.

Along the way, he has scored 31 goals across all competitions, including 16 in the league, which has brought his overall total to 60 for Celtic since he netted on his debut back in January 2022.

Daizen’s first Premiership goal this season came in the 3-0 Glasgow derby win over Rangers at Celtic Park back in September, while his most recent was in the 5-1 home win over Kilmarnock in April.

He’s also netted two hat-tricks in this campaign – one at Hampden in the League Cup semi-final and the other at home in a Scottish Cup win over Raith Rovers.

And the 27-year-old, along with the rest of his team-mates, will be aiming to complete a domestic Treble when they face Aberdeen in the Scottish Cup final at Hampden on May 24.

Before then, Brendan Rodgers' side will lift the William Hill Premiership trophy at Paradise this Saturday following their final league game of the season, against St Mirren, in what has been another title-winning campaign for the Hoops.
