Spain midfielder Rodri has been named Player of the Tournament following the UEFA Nations League decider at Rotterdam's Stadion Feijenoord 'De Kuip'.
Rodri was a crucial cog in the Spain team that won the tournament. He put in an all-action performance in the 2-1 semi-final victory against Italy, and was also on fine form in the final as his side beat Croatia 5-4 on penalties following a 0-0 draw after 120 minutes, coolly scoring his spot kick.
This latest accolade comes just over a week since Rodri scored the winning goal for Manchester City in the UEFA Champions League final, completing a historic treble and also earning himself selection as both Player of the Match and 2022/23 UEFA Champions League Player of the Season.
