The Real Madrid defender, represented by René Ramos, President of RR Soccer Management Agency, received the award for Best Defender of last season’s UEFA Champions League yesterday in Monaco.

The Madrid captain was presented the award in recognition of a brilliant 16/17 season in which he conquered, among other titles, Europe’s elite club competition for the third time in his career. Sergio played 11 games in last season’s UEFA Champions League, adding up to 1,001 minutes while scoring 1 goal and providing 3 assists.

The jury for this award was comprised of the coaches of the 32 teams that participated in the group stages of the tournament last season, along with 55 journalists each representing one of the member federations of UEFA.

Congratulations on this new accolade, Sergio. Keep it up.
