D1 Arkema: Parisian Tabitha Chawinga voted best player of the season
For its debut, it will have left its mark on D1 Arkema. PSG striker Tabitha Chawinga was named best player of the season on Monday April 29 during the French women’s football trophy ceremony. Nominated alongside midfielders Grace Geyoro (PSG) and Lindsey Horan (OL), the Malawian succeeds Kadidiatou Diani.
A logical reward as it was decisive for the team led by Jocelyn Prêcheur, with his qualities of speed and an unparalleled finish. Arriving from Wuhan in China last summer, after a season on loan at Inter Milan where she also won the Serie A MVP title, the 27-year-old is currently top scorer (18 goals in 19 matches) and best passer in D1 Arkema (10 assists).
Throughout the 2023-2024 financial year, his association with the Frenchwoman Marie-Antoinette Katoto proved particularly explosive. Despite the elimination in the semi-final of the Champions League against OL – during which she scored in the return – Tabitha Chawinga can hope to lift the Coupe de France with PSG on Saturday in the final against Fleury, but also the championship at end of the playoffs on May 17.
Among the other trophies awarded, Chiamaka Nnadozie (Paris FC) won that of best goalkeeper in D1, while Sonia Bompastor (OL) was acclaimed for the second consecutive time in the category of best coaches. Attacking midfielder Inès Benyahia (on loan from OL to Le Havre) was voted revelation of the season in the elite, after having contributed to the maintenance of the Normandes.
