English translation of the Simon Kjær award video

The winner of the Players' Association's Player of the Year 2009 is: Simon Kjær.

Simon Kjær could already call himself talent of the year in Danish football, and now the Palermo defender can also call himself the Player of the Year. From a talented teenager in FC Midtjylland, Simon Kjær has in no time established himself in Serie A. In 2009 he has moved directly into the starting line-up on the national team.

Yes, Simon Kjær unfortunately could not be here tonight, he will play a match tomorrow afternoon. Palermo must face Atalanta. He wanted to, but could not, we have received a small greeting from him:



Simon Kjær: "Hi everyone. I would of course like to thank you very much for this award I have received. I am incredibly happy and proud that my colleagues have voted as they have. It means incredible much and it's a wonderful recognition of the work I do here every day. And I'm incredibly proud of that and you should have a lot of thanks for that, and then you must have a good evening."

"It's a wonderful recognition of the work I do here every day."

- Simon Kjær
