Moroccan footballer Yassine Bounou, the current Al Hilal goalkeeper, has been selected “best goalkeeper” in the Saudi Pro League for the 2023-2024 season, Al Hilal tweeted on Wednesday.
Bounou, who signed a three-year deal with the Riyadh-based squad in August 2023, has had a fantastic season, keeping 15 clean sheets and surrendering just 20 goals in 31 games for his side. He finished the season by earning his club’s Saudi Pro League title.
The Moroccan goalkeeper has been selected goalie of the month three times before: in October 2023, November 2023, and February 2024.
He has also been nominated for the 2023 Ballon d’Or and the 2023 Best FIFA Football Award. In December 2023, he was named the CAF Best Men’s Player of the Year, following his great performance at the 2022 Qatar World Cup.
