At tonight’s ceremony in London though, the prize was awarded to Liverpool forward Mohamed Salah for his curling strike against Everton.
The Egyptian is a former Roma player, but joined the Reds last summer for an initial €42m.
Juve Coach Max Allegri had been nominated for best Coach, but he didn't make the final three and that prize went to France's Didier Deschamps.
