Gerard Piqué Player Career Award
Awarded by: His Highness Sheikh Mansoor bin Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Chairman of the Dubai Sports Council.
Acknowledged to be one of the best defenders of his generation, Piqué was one of the seven players who managed to win the triple three times wearing the jersey of Barcelona.
During his career Piqué wore the prestigious jerseys of Manchester United and Barcelona, winning a cup in the English Premier League, an English Championship and a Champions League. In Spain he was victorious in eight Championships, six Spanish Cups, six Spanish Super Cups, three Champions Leagues, three UEFA Cups and three Club World Cups.
Piqué deserves credit for the outstanding contribution he made to Club team successes, but he should also be recognised for his part in the wins by Spain of the World Cup in 2010 and the European Cup in 2012.
