Bayern Munich’s record-setting striker Robert Lewandowski retained FIFA’s top men’s player title at “The Best” of 2021 ceremony as Barcelona captain Alexia Putellas collected the award for best women’s player.
The 33-year-old Lewandowski, who set a Bundesliga goal record last season, won the trophy for the second time, edging Argentine Lionel Messi of Paris Saint-Germain and Egyptian Mohamed Salah of Liverpool.
It was some consolation for the Polish striker who lost out to Messi for the Ballon d’Or in November.
