Man City midfielder Phil Foden delighted being named PFA Young Player of the Year

Manchester City midfielder Phil Foden was left delighted being named PFA Young Player of the Year.

Foden also won the award last year.

"I'm really honoured to be honest, especially to win it back-to-back, it shows that I've come a long way this year with the consistency of my game, and I'm really pleased to win it again," Foden said.

"All the best players in the world have got to show consistency and keep performing at the higher level, and this year I've just tried to do that and try and help my team as much as possible - I've been really happy with my performances this year.

"Hopefully I can win the main award in the future, but it's all about taking small steps and improving. I always love winning individual awards, it's just nice to look at and see how far you've come so, yeah, I'm really pleased."
