Wen: Erling Haaland
Manchester City goal machine Haaland became the first man to win both Premier League Player and Young Player of the Year awards in the same season at a glitzy ceremony on Saturday.
The 22-year-old Norwegian racked up a new league record of 36 goals in his debut season in English football, ahead of City’s final-day clash at Brentford on Sunday.
After helping Pep Guardiola’s manne to retain their title, he can help the Cityzens chase down a treble with Haaland setting his sights on Manchester United in next weekend’s FA Cup final and Inter Milan in the Champions League final the week after that.
