Manchester City midfielder Phil Foden has been named the Premier League Young Player of the Season following a stunning breakthrough campaign.

Foden beat the likes of City team-mate Ruben Dias, who went on to win the Player of the Season award, as well as Dominic Calvert-Lewin, Illan Meslier, Marcus Rashford, Mason Mount, Declan Rice and Bukayo Saka.

The 21-year-old was involved in 14 Premier League goals in 17 starts and 11 substitute appearances across the campaign.

Foden becomes the second recipient of the award, presented to the best player aged 23 or younger, after Liverpool's Trent Alexander-Arnold won the prize last season.
