Foden named PFA player of year, Palmer young player

Manchester City midfielder Phil Foden has won the Professional Footballers' Association (PFA) men's player of the year award, while Chelsea winger Cole Palmer was named young player 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.

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.
