Jesurun Rak-Sakyi has been named Crystal Palace's Under-23 Player of the Season.

Attacker Rak-Sakyi helped Palace finish fifth in the Premier League 2 Division 1, their first campaign in the top-flight of Academy football.

Aged 19, Rak-Sakyi scored 18 goals from 25 appearances throughout 2021/22, making him joint-top scorer with Manchester City's James McAtee.

Rak-Sakyi said: "It's been a great season, not just for me but the whole team. I'm very thankful. It's been great [training with the first-team].

"It's been my best season so far. I've been working so hard this season and am grateful for everyone who's helped me."

Jes joined by Tayo Adaramola as a young prospect to earn recognition at the End of Season Awards, with the young full-back named Under-18 Player of the Season.
