Aston Villa and Argentina goalkeeper Emiliano Martinez won the Yashin Trophy – the award for the best goalkeeper – for the second year running.
Martinez, a World Cup winner in 2022, helped Aston Villa finish fourth in the Premier League last season and qualify for the Champions League for the first time.
The 32-year-old also played a key role in Argentina winning the Copa America with five clean sheets in six games.
“Winning once is an honour, back-to-back is something I never expected,” said Martinez, who is the first player to win the goalkeeping award twice in a row.
