Phil Foden has completed an individual award double by being named as the 2024 Professional Football Association (PFA) Player’s Player of the Year — three months after winning the FWA Footballer of the Year award following Manchester City‘s fourth successive Premier League title.
Foden, 24, has become the fourth City player in five years to be voted as Player of the Year by his fellow professionals, with Kevin De Bruyne (2020, 2021) and Erling Haaland (2023) both winning the award in recent years.
