Kevin De Bruyne could cement his place as an all-time Premier League great tonight, as he looks to surpass legends like Alan Shearer, Thierry Henry, and Cristiano Ronaldo.
Manchester City talisman De Bruyne will find out at 7pm on Thursday whether he has been awarded a third consecutive PFA Player of the Year award, which would represent a feat no other player has ever managed. Manchester United have had different players win the award in three or four consecutive seasons before, but no single player has ever won three PFA accolades in total, let along successive seasons.
That would see De Bruyne surpass the likes of Shearer, Henry, Ronaldo and Gareth Bale - the other players to win two awards in their careers - while his biggest competition is set to come from Liverpool forward Mo Salah, looking to join that list with his second Player of the Year title.
