<h2>Kudus wants unity and love between current generation of players</h2>

When the 23-year-old mounted the stage, he invited Issahaku to join him and expressed his admiration for the Leicester City winger’s journey, before calling for unity between the current generation of players.

“I’d like to thank everyone who took the time to come and support this wonderful awards. I’m happy to be named as the player of the year. It’s a testament of my hard work, my teammates and my family,” Kudus said after receiving his award.

“I would like to thank Fatawu for coming here to support, even though he is also part of the nominees as well. As part of the new generation, one of my aims is to increase the unity and the love between us. He has pushed me a lot this season and I have pushed him a lot.

“I want to use this opportunity to tell him how proud I am of his journey, how far he has come and what he has done this season at Leicester.”
