An award from UEFA for being voted their best player of the year. Normally given from international performances and European performances. Players who DIDN'T play for Europe during the voting period will NOT be nominated, no matter if they played like 2015 Ronaldo or 2012 Messi or 2015 Neymar in the 3rd division of Uruguay.
