Virgil van Dijk and Lucy Bronze named Players of the Year

Cristiano Ronaldo, Virgil van Dijk and Lionel Messi were the final three nominees for the men's Player of the Year award

The men's and women's Players of the Years have been announced.

The Union of European Football Associations - or Uefa - have revealed who came out on top for last season.

Only one player from the English top tier made it onto men's shortlist - Liverpool's Virgil van Dijk.

Despite being up against Juventus' Cristiano Ronaldo and Barcelona's Lionel Messi who've both won it more than once before, the Dutch international won.

He's the first defender to do so.

Ada Hegerberg, Amandine Henry and Lucy Bronze were nominated for the women's Player of the Year award

England's Lucy Bronze was crowned the women's Player of the Year for last season.

She's the first English player - male or female - to be shortlisted.

She was up against two of her fellow Lyon players in the final three - Ada Hegerberg and Amandine Henry.

The award is voted for by top coaches and journalists in the women's game.
