Arsenal striker Viktor Gyokeres won the Gerd Muller Trophy, which is awarded to the top scoring player in 2024-25 in European football for club and country.
The 27-year-old scored 54 goals in 52 games for Portuguese club Sporting last season – and nine goals in six Nations League games for Sweden.
He joined Arsenal in a deal worth up to £64m in the summer.
The exact criteria for the award is not known, meaning the winner was uncertain before the ceremony even though it is factually based.
Last season’s was shared between Bayern Munich’s Harry Kane and Real Madrid’s Kylian Mbappe (although for his time at PSG) – with 52 goals each.
The previous winners for the award which was launched in 2021 were Robert Lewandowski, twice, and Erling Haaland.
