Haaland becomes the first player in Premier League history to win both the Young Player and Premier League Player of the Season awards in the same campaign.
It comes after a record-breaking debut season for the 22-year-old striker, who has scored 36 goals in 35 appearances, the most by a player in a single campaign, helping City retain the Premier League title.
In winning the Young Player prize, Haaland makes it a third successive season in which a Man City star has claimed it.
Phil Foden was the winner in each of the previous two campaigns.
The award was introduced in 2018/19, when it was won by Trent Alexander-Arnold, and is given to the best player aged 23 or under at the start of the season.
Haaland received the most combined votes from the public and a Premier League panel, topping an eight-man shortlist, including Sven Botman, Moises Caicedo, Alexander Isak, Alexis Mac Allister, Gabriel Martinelli, Martin Odegaard, and Bukayo Saka.
