Lavery won Player of the Year, Young Player of the Year and Golden Boot at the NI Football Awards after his 30 goals helped Linfield to a league and cup double. Lavery joins fellow Northern Ireland internationals Stuart Dallas and Gavin Whyte in having won both the Young Player of the Year and Player of the Year awards in the same season. "He has been amazing, right back from the day when I first met him going away with Northern Ireland Under 17s," Lavery commented. The people are amazing, from the top right through the club, and I will never forget the people.
