Manchester City's Raheem Sterling have won the Football Writers' Association Footballer of the Year award.
Sterling, 24, took the writers' award with 62% of the vote after he was named Professional Footballers' Association Young Player of the Year.
Liverpool defender Virgil van Dijk - PFA Player of the Year - was second.
More than 400 FWA members voted in their award, with Sterling finishing more than 100 votes clear of Van Dijk,
Tottenham's Harry Kane, Chelsea's Eden Hazard, Arsenal's Alexandre Lacazette, and Manchester City's Bernardo Silva and David Silva all earned votes.
Sterling becomes the first City player to win the award since 1969, when Tony Book shared the honour with Derby's Dave Mackay.
