Bayern Munich striker Lewandowski beat off competition from Manchester City midfielder Kevin De Bruyne and four-time winner Lionel Messi to claim the men’s prize for the first time, after a memorable 2019-20 campaign
The Poland international scored incredible 55 goals in 47 games across all competitions as Hansi Flick’s side won a treble consisting of the Bundesliga, DFB-Pokal and Champions League.
He becomes the sixth different winner of the men’s award, which has been running since 2008, following in the footsteps of Messi, Cristiano Ronaldo, Wesley Sneijder, Luka Modric and last year’s victor, Virgil van Dijk.
“It feels very good – if you win an individual title, that’s another nice extra,” Lewandowski said in an exclusive video interview with Goal.com
“Football is a team sport, but these additional awards mean a lot to me too. It shows that the hard work you put in every day will one day pay off.
“As long as you play football, you have to stay hungry. After your career you can think about what you have won. Getting to the top is difficult, but staying at the top is even more difficult.”

Lewandowski is one of seven players from last season’s Bayern squad to rank among the top 25 men, with the likes of Thomas Muller, Joshua Kimmich, Serge Gnabry and Alphonso Davies all included alongside Thiago Alcantara, who left the club to join Liverpool over the summer. Odogwublog.com
It is De Bruyne, though, who finishes as runner-up after a superb season at City with 20 assists equaling Thierry Henry’s record for the most assists in a Premier League season.
