Ghana's very own striker, Inaki Williams, has done it again! He has been named the SPORTY LaLiga Most Valuable Player for the second year in a row. That’s like winning the coolest trophy in soccer!
At 30 years old, Inaki has shown everyone that he’s a superstar. He won the title of Best African Player in Spain for the 2024/25 season. He beat out some tough competition from Pape Gueye of Villarreal and Enzo Boyomo from Osasuna. That’s pretty impressive!
During this season, Inaki really made a difference for his team, Athletic Bilbao. He scored six goals and helped his teammates score by providing eight assists in 35 games. That means he was involved in a lot of the action!
What’s really cool about Inaki is that he has played for just one team his whole career—Athletic Bilbao. He’s like a superhero for his team! In 2022, he decided to play for the Ghana national team and has scored two goals in 22 games for the Black Stars.
Even though Inaki has been playing so well in Spain, he won’t be playing in the upcoming 2025 Unity Cup in London. The coach, Otto Addo, said they want to try out some new players for this tournament. It’s a bummer for Inaki, but it sounds like they have a plan!
Inaki Williams continues to be a shining star in soccer, and we can’t wait to see what he does next!
