Trofeo EFE
Trofeo EFE is an annual football award given by the EFE news agency since the 1990–91 season to the best Ibero-American player in Spanish football. Recipients are selected based on assessments from the agency's sports editors.[1]
The inaugural winner was Rommel Fernández from Panama. Chilean Iván Zamorano and Brazilian Ronaldo Nazário have won the award twice. In 2000, the Argentinian Fernando Redondo received a special distinction as the best player of the 1990s decade. In the 2017–18 season, the award expanded beyond Spain, with Uruguayan Edinson Cavani becoming the first player outside the Spanish La Liga to win the award, doing so with French Ligue 1 side Paris Saint-Germain.[2] In the 2018–19 season, the award was not given, and in 2019–20 it was won by a woman for the first time ever, Colombian midfielder Leicy Santos.[3]
Lionel Messi has won the award a record five times, more than any other player.[4]
