Aston Villa starlet Easah Suliman has set his sights on winning silverware with the Villans after being named 2016 Youth Sport Trust Young Sports Person of the Year.

The 18-year-old, who is yet to make his Premier League debut for Villa, beat out gymnast Ellie Downie and long-jumper Shara Proctor for the award but would much rather achieve success with Villa than rack up the individual accolades.

"These awards are nice, they are definitely a confidence boost but the important thing for me is to keep working hard and to concentrate on my football," Suliman told Sky Sports.

"This is just the start for me and hopefully it can help me achieve bigger and better things. These awards and trophies are great but I want to play for Villa and win trophies on the pitch. That is what will give me the greatest satisfaction."
