Nigeria international Calvin Bassey has been named Fulham’s Player of the Season for the 2024–25 campaign, becoming the first Nigerian and African to receive the club’s top individual honour, Soccernet.ng reports.
The Super Eagles defender was a rock at the heart of Marco Silva’s side, playing a crucial role in Fulham’s impressive 11th-place finish in the Premier League.
Now in his second season at Craven Cottage after joining from Ajax in 2023, Bassey established himself as a key figure in Fulham’s back line.
The 25-year-old featured in 35 of the club’s 38 Premier League matches, scoring once and producing a string of consistent performances. (TheNation)
