David De Gea Becomes The First Man United Player To Win The Player's Player of the Year Award Four Times.
Goalkeeper David de Gea has won the Manchester United Player’s Player of the Year award for the fourth time, which is more than any other player in the club’s history.
The Spanish shot-stopper was in great and consistent form for the Red Devils all season, despite what seems to be a very disappointing campaign for the team. David de Gea played every single minute of Premier League action and pulled off a series of top and sublime saves.
The 31-year-old won the award ahead of Cristiano Ronaldo and Fred.
He had also won the club’s Player of the Month award during the just concluded season on three occasions in November, December and January respectively.
He accumulated a total of seven Man-of-the-Match awards during the campaign, with only Ronaldo having claimed as many.

He has gone on the win the award again in 2014/15, 2017/18 and now 2021/22.
