Kwofie scored six goals in four matches and also picked up three man of the match awards.

Coach Abubakar won three out of four matches to seal a second Premier League title for Aduana Stars and his first as a coach, and his impressive run got him the accolade.

The two are also contending for the Coach of the Year and Player of the Year awards respectively.
