Vincent Kompany has been been named Championship manager of the season after guiding Burnley to promotion to the Premier League.
The 37-year-old Belgian guided the Clarets to an immediate top-flight return in his first season in charge.
Middlesbrough’s Chuba Akpom won the Championship player of the season award after scoring a division-high 28 goals.
Bristol Rovers’ Aaron Collins won the League One award and Northampton’s Sam Hoskins the accolade for League Two.
Collins, with 16 goals and 11 assists the only player in the division to hit double figures in both categories, collected the award despite being in a Rovers side that are on course for a mid-table finish.
Meanwhile, Hoskins’ 21 goals for Northampton have been crucial in the Cobblers’ push for automatic promotion from the fourth tier.
In-demand Kompany honoured
Kompany’s work in transforming Burnley on their return to the Championship, in what is the former Manchester City captain’s first management job in England, has quickly made him a man in demand.
Chelsea have Kompany on their shortlist of prospective candidates to take the job full-time at Stamford Bridge, while he has also been linked with the vacancy at Tottenham.
He has been recognised as the Championship’s manager of the season with his side on the brink of clinching the title.
Meanwhile, Leyton Orient manager Richie Wellens collected the League Two manager of the year award for guiding the London club to promotion as title winners.
Plymouth Argyle’s Steven Schumacher has been named League One manager of the season with his table-topping side on the cusp of automatic promotion.
Bali Mumba’s influence on the Pilgrims’ push for promotion while on loan from Norwich has earned the 21-year-old the League One young player of the season award.
Bristol City’s 19-year-old midfielder Alex Scott won the Championship young player of the year award, while Colchester United wing-back Junior Tchamadeu, 19, collected the accolade in League Two.
At the award’s night at the Grosvenor House Hotel on Park Lane in London, former footballer and broadcaster Chris Kamara – who recently revealed he had apraxia, which sometimes causes difficulty in speaking – was recognised for his service to the game when handed the Contribution to League Football Award.
Former Wycombe striker Adebayo Akinfenwa, who retired last season, was given the Sir Tom Finney Award in recognition of his career – one which spanned more than 750 games with 12 clubs, and which led him to achieve cult status and be recognised widely by his nickname ‘The Beast’.
