De Gea honoured to land trio of Man Utd top player awards

David De Gea admitted his delight at winning the Manchester United Player of the Year for a third successive season.

The Spanish goalkeeper again captured the Sir Matt Busby award at Monday's award ceremony at Old Trafford to become the first player in the club's history to win the prize three times in a row.

De Gea, 25, joined Cristiano Ronaldo as the only two Red Devils players to be named the club's best player on a trio of occasions and he took to Twitter to express his gratitude at being voted in.
