Gor Mahia FC’s Ghanaian midfield maestro, Enock Morrison has been named the Most Valuable Player (MVP) of the 2025/26 SportPesa Premier League season, adding the league’s top individual honor to a campaign already defined by collective glory.
The coveted award, announced at a star-studded Gala night in Nairobi, also saw Morrison named the league’s Best Midfielder, capping a season in which he was the creative and defensive heartbeat of a record-breaking Gor Mahia side.
Morrison’s influence was central to K’Ogalo securing their 22nd league title, a record-extending feat achieved in dominant fashion.
Since joining the club in 2024 from Ghanaian powerhouse Asante Kotoko, the 26-year-old has adapted seamlessly to Kenyan football, but it was this season that he truly ascended to stardom.
Across the league campaign, Morrison featured in 31 of 34 matches, missing only three due to suspension. Despite those absences, his numbers told a remarkable story of consistency and brilliance: 15 Man of the Match awards, nine inclusions in the Team of the Week, and three Player of the Month nominations.
But it was his emotional acceptance speech that brought the Gala night to a standstill.
“I want to thank the Kenyan community for giving me a home away from home and for providing such an incredible support system,” Morrison said, his voice steady with emotion.
“Winning this award is truly special, and I want to dedicate it to the late Raila Odinga and my beloved mother. Thank you for your support; this award is also for you.”
The dedication to the late Kenyan opposition leader and to his mother drew a prolonged standing ovation from the audience, underscoring Morrison’s deep connection to the country that has embraced him.
Morrison’s performances were not merely statistical; they were transformational. His ability to break up opposition attacks, dictate tempo and launch decisive forward passes gave Gor Mahia an edge in tight contests throughout the 2025/26 campaign.
With the MVP trophy now in his cabinet and a league title already secured, Morrison has cemented his place as one of the finest imports in Gor Mahia’s storied history.
For fans, already dreaming of a 23rd title, the sight of their Ghanaian general patrolling the midfield is the surest reason for optimism.
