Maltese international Maria Farrugia continues to make waves in English football, having been shortlisted for the prestigious Barclays Women’s Championship Player of the Season award. She also secured two nominations for Goal of the Season at the first-ever Women’s Professional Game Awards.

Representing Sheffield United, Maria was a consistent bright spot in an otherwise challenging campaign for the club. Her creativity, skill, and attacking prowess were evident throughout the season, making her one of the league’s standout performers.

Maria’s excellence did not go unnoticed - she collected multiple Player of the Month and Goal of the Month accolades, further reinforcing her status as a rising star in the women’s game.

While Sheffield United struggled as a team, finishing at the bottom of the Championship table, Maria’s individual brilliance has captured attention and admiration beyond club results.

Her latest nominations are not only a personal triumph but also a proud moment for Maltese football, showcasing the growing presence of Maltese talent on the international stage.

Well done Maria and good luck!
