​34-year old Grant collects Stoke City top gongs

Stoke City keeper Lee Grant has picked up the major honours at the club's end-of-the-season awards ceremony.

The 34-year-old, who joined the Potters from Derby last summer to provide cover for injured Jack Butland, picked up fans' player-of-the-year, players' player-of-the-year and supporter branch player-of-the-year awards at the gala dinner at the bet365 Stadium.

He said: "I'm absolutely over the moon.

"I would have snatched your hand off at the start of the season for one, never mind three, especially here at Stoke City, which is obviously a fantastic Premier League club. I'm really proud.

"Marko (Arnautovic) has been giving me a bit of ribbing this week and that King Arnie is the main man.

"Given the level of player we have here, I'm over joyed to have collected these."
