Robert Lewandowski was crowned the best men's player and Alexia Putellas named best women's player at the Best FIFA awards.

Poland international Lewandowski set a new record for most Bundesliga goals in a calendar year with his 43rd goal in December, breaking the record set by Gerd Muller in 1972.

The 33-year-old, winner of the men's award in 2020, also became the first player in Bundesliga history to finish top scorer in four consecutive seasons.

Barcelona midfielder Alexia Putellas was named women's player of the year, adding the accolade to her Ballon d'Or triumph.

Putellas, 27, captained Barcelona to the treble, with the Catalan side winning the Women's Champions League, Spanish league and Copa de la Reina last term.
