Portugal national, Cristiano Ronaldo has been named the UEFA Player of the Season for the 2016-2017 season.
It is the third time Ronaldo will win the coveted award and well deserved after a campaign which saw the Portuguese superstar help Real Madrid to the La Liga and Champions League double.
The award which was presented on the sidelines of the Champions League group stage draw is usually an indicator for who will win the even more desirable Ballon d’Or.
Speaking on his win, Ronaldo said, “The same goals every year, the same challenge – to win everything that’s possible with my club, with my national team. I’m so glad to be here, and honoured to win this trophy again. I thank my team-mates and congratulations to them too,” the forward said after receiving the award.
“For the national team, when I go there they always give me motivation to work hard and carry on every time. I’m so blessed – thanks also to the supporters of Real Madrid, everyone who helped me to achieve this trophy. Thank you – I’m so happy.”
