2015/2016 best player in the Champions
League award as voted by Spanish and
Italian sports papers MARCA and Gazzetta
Dello Sport after scoring 16 goals ( 51 in all
competitions) to help Real Madrid claim an
11th European Cup/Champions League

‘It just makes me want to keep
working hard for this club. I hope

club I love. We have a big squad
that can cover for Luka Modric and
Sergio Ramos’ injuries- it’ll be
difficult but Real have the quality.

prestigious award on his Instagram page,
he captioned it:
‘Gracias/Grazie to the readers of
Marca and Gazzetta dello Sport for
this award. Wouldn’t have been
possible without my team mates.
Thank you all!’
