Lionel Messi has won the Uefa Best Player in Europe Award after beating Luis Suarez and Cristiano Ronaldo to the prize.
The 28-year-old shone in the second half of last season as he inspired Barcelona to the treble, with the club lifting the Champions League, Copa del Rey and La Liga.
Messi finished level on goals with Real Madrid star Ronaldo and Barcelona team-mate Neymar in Europe in 2014/15 – as all three men found the back of the net 10 times.
His Champions League haul helped him to a final tally of 62 goals in 67 games in all competitions for club and country, which means he is again likely to battle it out with Ronaldo for the Ballon d’Or in January.
