Celtic attacker Daizen Maeda has won the PFA Scotland Premiership player of the year award.

The Japan international beat team-mates Callum McGregor and Nicolas Kuhn, as well as Dundee forward Simon Murray, to the prize.

Maeda has netted 33 goals for Celtic this season, despite playing most of the campaign in a wide position.

Motherwell midfielder Lennon Miller was named SPFL Young Player of the Year ahead of Celtic’s Arne Engels, Rangers striker Hamza Igamane, and Hearts forward James Wilson.

John McGlynn won the manager award from his peers for the second year running after leading Falkirk back to the top flight.

It was a players’ award double for Celtic as Emma Lawton won the SWPL award.
