Eden Hazard and Harry Kane land top prizes at the London Football Awards

Eden Hazard capped off an excellent week by being crowned London Footballer of the Year less than a week after picking up his first domestic trophy with Chelsea.


Hazard helped Chelsea win the Capital One Cup on Sunday with a 2-0 win over London rivals Tottenham and the Belgium international scored the only goal of the game on Wednesday night as the Blues maintained their five point advantage at the top of the Premier League with a win at West Ham.

And on Thursday night he scooped the Player of the Year award at the London Football Awards.

Hazard has been in great form for Jose Mourinho’s side this season, scoring 14 goals in 40 games as Chelsea challenge for domestic and European honours.

Chelsea team-mate Thibaut Courtois won the Goalkeeper of the Year award for his excellent displays between the sticks for the Premier League leaders this season.
Tottenham’s Harry Kane – who has scored 24 goals in all competitions this season – was named Young Footballer of the Year.

And Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger was honoured with the Outstanding Contribution to a London club.

While outgoing Brentford boss Mark Warburton was named Manager of the Year after guiding the Bees into the play-off places in their first season in the Championship.

Chelsea won't sign new players - Jose Mourinho

Chelsea will make no signings in the January transfer window, says manager Jose Mourinho. The team has enough capable and balanced players to even out in the coming competitions. The Blues have six matches before January 1, with the first starting today against Hull City. Mourinho plans to rest his senior players for this Yuletide season, saying he is doubtful any one player should appear in all the six matches. The manager has granted his European-based players a two-day 'holiday' to rest and 'have a nice dinner with their families'. The former Real Madrid manager's side meets Hull City in the Premier league today. Petr Cech will replace injured skipper goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois in the Hull City face-off. Cesc Fabregas is ruled out for suspension and midfielder Nemanja Matic joins the squad after ban.
