Man City dominate PFA Team of the Year

Manchester United's Luke Shaw and Tottenham's Son Heung-min are in a 2020-21 PFA Premier League Team of the Year dominated by Manchester City .

Six of City's Premier League-winning squad - Ederson, Joao Cancelo, John Stones, Ruben Dias, Kevin de Bruyne and Ilkay Gundogan - make the team, which is voted for by fellow players.

United's Bruno Fernandes also makes it.

Tottenham's Harry Kane and Liverpool's Mohamed Salah, who scored 23 and 22 league goals respectively, are in.

Despite winning the Champions League - as well as reaching the FA Cup final and finishing fourth in the Premier League - no Chelsea players are included.

There is no room for City midfielder Phil Foden, 21, who made 50 appearances in all competitions in 2020-21, helping the club win the Premier League and Carabao Cup, and reach the Champions League final.

Keeper Kasper Schmeichel, who inspired Leicester City to a first FA Cup triumph, also misses out

The PFA Team of the Year was voted for by members of the Professional Footballers' Association, the players' union.

Belgium midfielder De Bruyne is the only player to retain his place from the team of 2019-20.

PFA TEAM of the YEAR:

Ederson (Man City) - Joao Cancelo (Man City), John Stones (Man City), Ruben Dias (Man City), Luke Shaw (Man Utd) - Kevin de Bruyne (Man City), Ilkay Gundogan (Man City), Bruno Fernandes (Man Utd) - Harry Kane (Tottenham), Mohamed Salah (Liverpool), Heung-min Son (Tottenham)
