Manchester City’s Kevin De Bruyne has pipped Liverpool’s Mohamed Salah to the Premier League’s Player of the Year award.
The 30-year-old’s teammate Phil Foden picked up a second consecutive Young Player of the Season Award earlier on Saturday, and the City duo will be hoping to add this season’s Premier League title to their trophy haul when they face Aston Villa on the final day on Sunday.
De Bruyne, who previously won the award in 2020, has made 27 league appearances this season, scoring 15 goals and making seven assists.
