SK Awards: Premier League - 5 Best Wingers of the Season

We have seen one of the most dramatic Premier League seasons this term. After a long journey of 38 game-weeks, we have finally found the champions. Again, it's Pep Guardiola's men who have clinched the trophy for the second consecutive time.

Manchester City had somehow managed to beat Liverpool by a single point to become the champions of England. After watching this kind of crazy title race, one can't deny that the Premier League is the most exciting league in the world.

As the league has already been finished, it's time to reward some of the best players who have done a superb job for their respective teams throughout the 2018-19 season. In this article, we are going to look at the wingers who have provided enough for their sides.

The wingers always try to use their pace and skills to exploit the space between the opposing defenders and help out other forwards to score more and more goals.

This season, there were a number of wingers, who have not only scored goals but also helped their teammates in scoring goals. Here are the top five wingers who have proved their class this season in the English Premier League.

#5 Ryan Fraser

Ryan Fraser is a Scottish footballer who plays for AFC Bournemouth in the right wing position. Fraser joined Bournemouth back in 2013. Since then, the 25-year-old has played over 150 matches for The Poppies.

Although the club finished the season from the 14th position in the points table with 45 points from 38 matches, the Scottish wizard has proved his worth for the club by showcasing some quality performances throughout the season. Ryan scored seven goals and provided 14 assists for The Cherries.

Rayn can play as the right midfielder as well as the right winger. He becomes dangerous when he finds the space between the defenders. He likes to sprint with the ball at his feet. His running ability makes him one of the most dangerous wingers out there in the Premier League.

A few teams could go for a raw talent like Ryan Fraser in the upcoming transfer market, and If he gets a better a deal, he should leave his current side to become one of the best in the World.

#4 Raheem Sterling

Raheem Sterling- the sensational one for Manchester City

Raheem Sterling has been enduring another dream season for the Manchester City side. Sterling joined for Man City from Liverpool in 2015. Under the management of Pep Guardiola, Sterling has become one of the most vital players in Manchester City's attack.

With 17 goals and 10 assists for the Cityzens, Raheem Sterling finished another remarkable Premier League season. This season, he has played in both wings for the Cityzens and scored a number of clinical goals from the left-hand side of the pitch. He made 34 Premier appearances this season for the Champions while keeping 86% pass accuracy and 71% shot accuracy.

His hard work and dedication for the club have made him one of the best wingers in the Premier League. The English champions will play their last FA Cup match of the season on May 18, where Raheem Sterling and Co could seal a domestic treble for this 2018-19 campaign.

#3 Sadio Mane

Sadio Mane is a Senegalese professional footballer who plays in the left wing position for Liverpool Football Club. It was not a pretty season for Liverpool at all as the Merseyside club lost the league after having 97 points on the board. The team has done a brilliant job, though they failed to grab the PL trophy. Jurgen Klopp and co have proved that their team is one of the most hardworking teams in the Premier League, and Sadio Mane is one of the most hardworking warriors for this Jurgen Klopp's side.

Scoring 22 goals and providing one assist from 36 appearances, Mane engraved his name amongst one the highest goal-scorers and shared the Premier League golden boot award with his fellow winger Mohamed Salah and Arsenal's sensation Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang.

During this season, Mane has not only scored with his legs, but also a number of goals have come from his headers. When the likes of Salah and Roberto Firmino missed some vital matches due to some injury issues, Mane came and rescued the Reds with his extraordinary performances.

#2 Mohamed Salah

Mo Salah shares his trophy with Mane and Aubameyang

Mohamed Salah has kept his golden boot for the second consecutive season. Last season, the Egyptian scored 32 goals from 36 matches, while this season he became the highest goal scorer of the Premier League by netting 22 goals from 38 matches.

He also has 8 assists under his name for the Reds in the Premier League 2018-19 season, with 76% passing accuracy and 62% shooting accuracy. Mohamed Salah could bring the Champions League title to Liverpool as the Merseyside club will be going to take on their fellow English side Tottenham Hotspur in an all-English encounter at Wanda Metropolitano Stadium on 1st June.

Since joining for the Reds from AS Roma in 2016, Mohamed Salah has become an integral part in Liverpool's offence. We can hope the same kind of performances from Mo Salah in the future as well.

#1 Eden Hazard

Eden Hazard did enough for Chelsea FC this season

It started from the World Cup 2018 and still continues. Yes, you are right. I am talking about Eden Hazard's form. We can say that Hazard has single-handedly helped Chelsea to gain their current place.

With 16 goals and 15 assists in the Premier League this season, Eden has proved again why he is rated so highly in the world of football, and why every big team wants to get his signature. This season, we saw some great goals from Eden Hazard's feet. One goal which conquered the World was against West Ham United at Stamford Bridge. He dribbled at least five Hammers' defenders before put the ball into the net.

If the rumours surrounding the London club are to be believed Eden Hazard is likely to leave the Londoners for Real Madrid in the upcoming summer transfer window.
