Man City Women’s Lauren Hemp named PFA Young Player of the Year for fourth time

Manchester City Women star Lauren Hemp has been named PFA Young Player of the Year for the fourth year running.

A remarkable run of four wins from four nominations makes her the most decorated PFA Award winner of all time. Help is also included in the PFA WSL Team of the Year.

Hemp enjoyed a season of landmarks, becoming the first player to make 100 appearances for the club and also scored the team’s 100th goal of the campaign.

Hemp said, “It’s an honour to get this again. I think especially for it to be voted for by players that I’ve played against and come up against. I mean, I look to many of them as role models as well so it’s an honour to be picked from them.

“Coming off the back of a great season, I’ve also got a lot to thank my teammates for to be honest, because I think they make me look better than I actually am! We’ve got a fantastic squad and players who get me the ball in good positions and strikers who can finish the crosses that I put in wherever I put them.

“I’ve got a great set of staff as well, people who are always pushing me, wanting me to get better so, I appreciate it and I know there’s so much more to come. I’m going to keep working hard for that to make sure that I continue on the right path.”
