Manchester City midfielder Phil Foden has won the Professional Footballers’ Association men’s player of the year award of the year.
It is the first time since the 2009-10 campaign that both men’s awards have gone to English players.
Wayne Rooney and James Milner won the player and young player of the year prizes respectively for that season.
“To win this award is something very special and it is one that I am very proud of and grateful for,” said Foden.
“To be recognised this way by your fellow professionals means everything and I would like to thank everyone who voted for me.
“Last season was another very special one for everyone at the club, but now all our focus is concentrated on trying to achieve more success this term.”
Foden scored 19 goals in 35 top-flight appearances in 2023-24 as City won a historic fourth successive Premier League, and – aged 23 – he became the youngest player to have won six league titles.
