Real Madrid, who beat Liverpool 3-1 in last year’s final, cleaned up in the UEFA awards, with their players winning in all the categories.
Keylor Navas won the goalkeeper-of-the-season award, Sergio Ramos was voted the best defender, while Cristiano Ronaldo claimed the forward of the season award.
Croatia international midfielder Luka Modric – a Champions League winner with his club and World Cup finalist with his country – won both the midfielder-of-the-year and overall best player awards.
Meanwhile, former Manchester United and England midfielder David Beckham was awarded the UEFA President’s award.
“From winning the Champions League with Real Madrid, achieving a historic result with Croatia, now this, it is amazing,” said Modric. “They are great feelings and I am happy and proud of everything that I have achieved.
“This year I can say is the best year of my career, collectively and individually. Finally I achieved something I dreamed since I started playing for the national team. We reached the final of the World Cup and even without winning it was historic.” (BBC Sport)
