Kayode’s first full season with the Bees has also earned recognition, with the right-back named on the Young Player of the Season shortlist.

Kayode’s pace, power and defensive qualities have been key to Brentford’s season, while his long throw-ins have developed into a major attacking weapon. Those deliveries have led to five goals and either created or directly caused 40 shots on goal in the Premier League this term.
He is nominated alongside Manchester City’s Rayan Cherki and Nico O’Reilly, West Ham United’s Mateus Fernandes, Newcastle United’s Lewis Hall, Bournemouth duo Junior Kroupi and Alex Scott, and Manchester United’s Kobbie Mainoo.

There is an extended interview with Andrews in Sunday’s matchday programme, as he reflects on his first season in charge.
The Bees boss is nominated alongside Arsenal’s Mikel Arteta, Manchester United’s Michael Carrick, Manchester City’s Pep Guardiola, Bournemouth’s Andoni Iraola and Sunderland’s Régis Le Bris.
Voting for all three awards will close at 12pm on Monday 18 May.
