De Gea named Man Utd Player of the Year

David De Gea has been named Manchester United's Players' Player of the Year.

The Spanish goalkeeper landed the trophy at United's end-of-season awards night after a stellar campaign with the gloves for the Red Devils.

Upon receiving the award, De Gea was grateful to his teammates and the club in general as his future at Old Trafford continues to be clouded ahead of a possible summer move to Real Madrid.

"I feel very good. I want to say thank you to my teammates," he said.

"They have been fantastic this season, I think we have a very good dressing-room. I love them, thank you very much.

"I am very pleased. I only want to say thank you to them and everyone. Thank you very much."

In other awards on the night, Juan Mata won Goal of the Year for his side volley against Liverpool, Andreas Pereira landed the U21s Player of the Year and Axel Tuanzebe won the U18s Player of the Year.
