Manchester City ace Phil Foden wants to secure a Premier League and FA Cup double.

The attacking midfielder was awarded the Football Writers' Association's Footballer of the Year.

Foden, who is now 23, has scored 25 goals in all competitions to propel City to the edge of double glory.

We're still in two competitions, we've got two finals left and we'll give everything to try and achieve success and try and do the Premier League four times which has never been done before," said the England international.

It would mean a lot to us. It's history and I don't think I can ever see it being done again."

I'm so happy for people who have been on my journey, the fans who have supported me, those who have helped me and to be named for this award means a lot to me," Foden added.

It just shows how far I've come, looking at my journey, and showing it's possible for other kids. It does feel a little bit extra special for me as a kid to come through the academy and now playing with world stars. I'm getting the rewards that I've worked so hard for."
