UEFA Names Players of the Year

INTERNATIONAL: Thursday was a big night for football. UEFA announced its annual awards for players and coaches of the year.

Chelsea and Italy midfielder Jorginho was named UEFA's men's Player of the Year for 2020-21. The 29-year-old Brazilian-born player won the Champions League and European championship with club and country this year. Jorginho was already cast as the favourite on an all-midfield short list of three, with Manchester City's Kevin de Bruyne and Chelsea team mate N'Golo Kante the other contenders.

Barcelona's Alexia Putellas won the women's award. The Barcelona captain beat team-mates Jenni Hermoso and Lieke Martens to the trophy, having won the women's Champions League back in May.

Chelsea's Thomas Tuchel was voted men's coach of the year, with Barcelona's Lluis Cortes taking the trophy for best women's coach.
