Soccer-Teenager Manucharyan voted Armenia’s top player
YEREVAN, Dec 14 (Reuters) – Teenage striker Edgar Manucharyan, whose
goals helped Pyunik Yerevan clinch a fourth consecutive Armenian
league title, has been voted the country’s player of the year.
The 17-year-old, currently on trial with Dutch champions Ajax
Amsterdam, scored 21 goals this season to finish as Armenia’s joint
top scorer with team mate Galust Petrosyan.
The pair also led Pyunik to a league and cup double in 2004, their
second such feat in the last three years.
