Kevin De Bruyne is crowned Premier League Player of the Season as fans vote Manchester City star ahead of Liverpool's title-winning heroes

 

 Kevin De Bruyne has been crowned the 2019-20 Premier League Player of the Season.
The Manchester City star was voted for by the fans ahead of Liverpool's title-winning heroes.
Reds skipper Jordan Henderson won the Football Writers Player of the Season award and was hotly-tipped to win this honour too.
Burnley goalkeeper Nick Pope was a shock nominee for Premier League Player of the Season with champions Liverpool dominating seven-man shortlist.

Sadio Mane, Jordan Henderson and Trent Alexander-Arnold were all nominated following the Reds' impressive campaign with De Bruyne the only inclusion from Manchester City.
Golden Boot winner Jamie Vardy and runner-up Danny Ings were the other two names on the shortlist.
But the leading playmaker of the campaign was City's De Bruyne who created 20 goals, equalling the record set by Thierry Henry in the 2002-03 season.
De Bruyne missed out on the award during City's title-winning seasons to Mohamed Salah and Virgil van Dijk but has now finally won it.
Jurgen Klopp's side dominated the shortlist after the club earned their first title in 30 years.
Captain Henderson had a stellar campaign and Mane also had an impressive season with 18 goals and seven assists.
