Three Liverpool stars shortlisted for Premier League Player of the Season and one for Young Player

Jordan Henderson, Trent Alexander-Arnold and Sadio Mane have been shortlisted for the Premier League Player of the Season award.

The three Liverpool stars are included with four other nominees after helping the Reds to win the 2019/20 league title and secure a club-record 99 points.

They are up against Manchester City midfielder Kevin De Bruyne, Burnley goalkeeper Nick Pope, Southampton striker Danny Ings and Leicester City frontman Jamie Vardy for the award.

Alexander-Arnold, meanwhile, is still only 21 and broke his own Premier League record for assists from a defender during a single season by providing 13 last term while appearing in all 38 matches across the campaign.

And his efforts mean he is also included on the shortlist for the Premier League's Young Player of the Season award.

The right-back is facing competition from Jack Grealish of Aston Villa, Mason Greenwood, Anthony Martial and Marcus Rashford of Manchester United, Christian Pulisic and Mason Mount of Chelsea and Dean Henderson of Sheffield United.

Reds skipper Henderson, who was chosen as the Football Writers’ Association’s Footballer of the Year last month, captained his side to top-flight glory and Mane struck 18 goals in the Premier League last season while providing seven assists as a driving force in Jurgen Klopp's side.
