Manchester United striker Wayne Rooney has won the 'Golden Boy' prize for the best young player in Europe.
The England forward received the prize from Italian newspaper Tuttosport after topping a journalists' poll to find the outstanding footballer under 21.
Rooney, 19, finished ahead of team-mate Cristiano Ronaldo, Fernando Torres, Arjen Robben and Obafemi Martins.
"As far as I am aware, this is the first international trophy I have won," said a delighted Rooney.
Ajax forward Rafael van der Vaart was last year's winner of an award Tuttosport hope will become regarded as the young player's equivalent of the European Footballer of the Year.

Whatever!:groan:
Once again, Alan Smith proved me correct as he was a far more effective player than Wayne Rooney in Manchester United's 1-1 draw with Fulham.
However, Cristiano Ronaldo provided the guys who say he is overrated with more ammunition.
I accept, Rooney might be marginally better based on what I saw at the Cottage yesterday.
But they aren't Juve players, so who gives a f**k?

As I have always said. The EPL just has excitement. If you are looking for REAL quality football, please look elsewhere.
How many EPL players played the last World Cup final match (or Olympic final match)?
Please don't give me names of people who moved after the matches in question.

The irony is that it was actually an Italian paper who took it upon themselves to make such an award but oh no , its not to your liking so you have to show your displeasure for the umpteemth time to remind us how much you hate the English and their tendency to overhype
If it burns you so much ignore their papers and do not watch their league, then you would be spared the pain of reading and watching what u regard as trash
