Kurt Zouma has been named Chelsea's Young Player of the Year.

The 20-year old landed the prize at the Premier League champions' end-of-season awards night at the Battersea Evolution on Tuesday.

Frenchman Zouma, who joined the Blues from Saint-Etienne last summer after signing in January, made 20 appearances in all competitions as both a central defender and central midfielder.

In other awards on the night, Eden Hazard won the Players' Player of the Year, Dom Solanke won the Academy Player of the Year and Oscar won Goal of the Year for his strike against QPR.
