Even though the Ballon d’Or ceremony took all of the attention, the Italians hosted a ceremony of their own, celebrating the Serie A’s best.
Cristiano Ronaldo won the Serie A best player award.
However, he wasn’t the only one with the award. Serie A’s best eleven took the stage, celebrating the best in Italy last season.
The Serie A team of the year 2019:
- HandanoviÄ
- Cancelo
- Chiellini
- Koulibaly
- Kolarov
- PjaniÄ
- Barella
- IliÄiÄ
- Quagliarella
- Zapata
- Ronaldo
“For me it is a pride to win this prize voted by the players, thank you. It has been my first year in Italy, a difficult league but I am very happy.
“This year I will try to be the best too,” Ronaldo said after receiving the award.
Juve and Ronaldo will have a hard time retaining the domestic glory as Inter with Antonio Conte look as strong as ever this season.
