Pulisic in battle with Man Utd trio for Premier League award as Liverpool dominate nominations

Chelsea's US international Christian Pulisic will face stiff competition to be named the Premier League Young Player of the Season after being nominated alongside three Manchester United stars for the award.

The shortlist for the top-flight's annual prize-giving was announced on Friday, with the Player of the Season, Young Player of the Season and Manager of the Season awards for 2019-20 all up for grabs following the completion of the season, delayed by almost three months due to the coronavirus pandemic.

Unsurprisingly, Liverpool dominate the nominations across the categories after winning their first league title in three decades.
