Modric Wins the 2019 Golden Foot Award

in #sportstalk5 years ago

Luka Modric continue to keep enjoying his best moments in football after he received an award last year between the two rivals Lionel Messi and Ronaldo in which both have been collecting it since 2008 and Modric went ahead last year to collect FIFA best player of the year.

The thing never stop as he went to Monaco again to collect the golden boot award at the age of 29.

The Croatian became the 17th player to receive the prize, with the first having been awarded to Roberto Baggio in 2003 whilst the Italian was plying his trade at Brescia.

"It is an honour for me to receive this award," Modric said.

"I am returning to my best level, as I showed in the last game [against Eibar].

"There are seven very important matches until the end of the year and we will try to keep playing well."

Spanish players have won the Golden Foot on two occasions, with Andres Iniesta in 2014 and Iker Casillas three years later, while Paris Saint-Germain player Edinson Cavani was the last to collect it in 2018.

Hope to him doing some great things in coming years.
