what kind of award is that?
The Golden Foot Award is an award for footballers based on sport perfomances/achievements and personality. You can only be nominated if you are older than 29 and still active as a footballer. This year was Buffon, Messi, Cristiano Ronaldo, Cavani, Thiago Silva, Rooney, Casillas, Kaka, Lampard and Pirlo where nominated and you can only win this prize once. They always nominate 10 players, so next year most of this footballers will come back as contender.

2003: Roberto Baggio
2004: Pavel Nedved
2005. Andriy Shevchenko
2006: Ronaldo (9)
2007: Alessandro Del Piero
2008: Roberto Carlos
2009: Ronaldinho
2010: Francesco Totti
2011: Ryan Giggs
2012: Zlatan Ibrahimovic
2013: Didier Drogba
2014: Andrés Iniesta
2015: Samuel Eto'o
2016: Gianluigi Buffon

If you win you get a footprint in cement in Monaco, by the other winners. So you will be forever remembererd as a footballer who did a lot of the sport, because that is where the prize is about. The contribution you gave to football.

Buffon is the first goalkeeper who won this prize!
