This is the name given to the Serie A awards held at the end of every calendar year, with a short list of the best performing players, coaches, clubs and referees in the Italian game.
They are then voted on by members of the AIC (Italian Players’ Association).
The winners will be announced in a ceremony on December 2.
From the winners of the individual player awards, there will then be chosen the overall Serie A Player of the Year.
