Manchester City duo Phil Foden and Lauren Hemp have won the 2022 PFA Young Player of the Year awards.
Foden played a key role in Pep Guardiola's title-winning side and claims the award for the second year in a row after beating off competition from Conor Gallagher, Reece James, Jacob Ramsey, Bukayo Saka and Emile Smith Rowe.
The 22-year-old becomes the sixth player to win the Young Player of the Year trophy back to back, joining Ryan Giggs, Robbie Fowler, Wayne Rooney, Dele Alli and City Women forward Hemp.
An important player for club and country, Foden was named the Premier League's young player of the season in May. He was City's fourth-highest goalscorer during the 2021/22 season, netting nine in the league, three in the Champions League and one each during City's FA and League Cup campaigns.
PFA members vote for the winners of each award, choosing the players they feel have put in the best performances all year. Receiving the award, Foden said: "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.
