Lennon Miller has completed a young player of the year double by adding the Scottish Football Writers' Association (SFWA) award to his PFA Scotland prize.

The 18-year-old Motherwell midfielder fended off competition from Hearts striker James Wilson and Kilmarnock pair Bobby Wales and David Watson.

Miller became Motherwell's youngest-ever captain and has made 37 club appearances this season, scoring four goals, as well as earning a first senior Scotland call-up.

He praised his "outstanding" fellow nominees and added: "To win out of all these players is a really proud moment and one I don't take for granted."
