Juventus striker, Cristiano Ronaldo has won the Serie A
Player of the Year award in his first season in Italy.
According to Goal, Ronaldo will be recognised for the award
before the game against Atalanta on Sunday.
Ronaldo scored 21 goals in 30 league matches, picking up
eight assists for Juventus this season. The Portuguese also picked up six goals
in the Champions League, and a goal in the Supercoppa Italiana.
He is also the first player to pick up the equivalent award
in England, Spain, and Italy.
Ahead of the announcement, Ronaldo took to Twitter on
Saturday to wish Juventus manager Massimiliano Allegri, farewell.
Ronaldo wrote: 'Thank you Mister! We lived a single year
together but it was awesome because besides being a great coach you are a great
man. It's been a pleasure working with you!'
The head coach will be leaving the club before the start of
next season in a decision Juventus president Andrea Agnelli said was 'the
toughest decision he has ever had to make.'
