With the 2024/2025 club football activities taking off in style, an official announcement confirmed the PFA Player of the Year award recipient.
At the Professional Footballers Association award night held today, Tuesday, August 20, 2024, the winner of the PFA Player of the Year 2024 was revealed in an official announcement.
The selection which was done through the votes of fellow players confirmed that Phil Foden following his performance in the 2023/2024 season in England had deserved to be crowned the winner of the prestigious award.
Why and how did Phil Foden win the PFA Player of the Year Award?
Phil Foden had what many have categorized as an explosive and overly successful 2023/2024 season with his club side Manchester City.
Although he didn’t kick start the season in a flying start and with a flurry of games, Phil Foden soon proved to his head coach Pep Guardiola why he should be considered a starter for Man City.
Foden was instrumental in Man City’s consecutive Premier League win in the 2023/2024 season as he scored 25 goals and provided 11 assists, which earned him the Premier League Player of the Season award in the same season as well.
