Hearts are celebrating a clean sweep at this year's PFA Scotland awards, with striker Claudio Braga taking home the Premiership Player of the Year trophy. The 26-year-old has been in sensational form since arriving from Norwegian side Aalesund, netting 14 league goals to fire Hearts to the top of the table, and 17 across all competitions. His consistent performances edged out teammate Lawrence Shankland and Motherwell duo Tawanda Maswanhise and Elijah Just for the top honor.

The Tynecastle club also dominated the managerial categories, with Derek McInnes and Eva Olid both earning the respect of their peers as their respective teams sit atop the league standings. It's a testament to the strength of the coaching setup in Gorgie this season.

In the women's game, Glasgow City's Nicole Kozlova was named SWPL Player of the Year. The Canadian-born Ukraine international was a regular goalscorer before a serious knee injury sidelined her two months ago, making the award a particularly poignant recognition of her impact.

Rangers secured a double in the young player categories, with on-loan Tottenham winger Mikey Moore winning the SPFL Young Player of the Year award, while 16-year-old May Cruft took home the SWPL young player prize. Lower league honors went to St Johnstone's Josh McPake, Hamilton's Oli Shaw, and East Kilbride's John Robertson.
