Simon Mignolet Leads Tributes As Twitter Reacts to Salah & Sane's PFA Player of the Year Scoops

Some of the biggest names in football flocked to Twitter to congratulate both Mohamed Salah and Leroy Sane on their PFA Player of the Year and Young Player of the Year awards following the London-held ceremony on Sunday evening. 

The Egyptian was hailed for his 41 goals in 46 appearances across all competitions, with his 31 in the Premier League equalling record-holders Cristiano Ronaldo, Alan Shearer and Luis Suarez for most goals scored in a 38-game season, although the 25-year-old still has three games to play. 

And despite it being one of the season's worst kept secrets, with the attacker's name leaked as the winner days before, it did not take the gloss off the reception received on Twitter, particularly from teammate Simon Mignolet, who appears to have been practising his video editing skills. 

However, of course, Salah's name was not the only one put up in lights inside the Grosvenor House Hotel on Sunday evening, with Manchester City's Sane picking up the Young Player of the Year award. 

The 22-year-old has been instrumental in his side's Premier League winning campaign, picking up 12 assists and netting nine goals in 28 outings. 

And similarly to Salah, Twitter was full of praise for the young German.
