Barcelona’s Polish star, Robert Lewandowski has been honored with the 2022 Golden Foot Award at a ceremony held in Monaco.
Before accepting the prestigious award at the Grimaldi Forum on Wednesday, Lewandowski, 34, had his footprint molded.
“I am very happy. I am very proud. And for me, it’s a huge honor to win this award, Golden Foot. Because I know that everything what I am doing and I did. I know how hard I have to work for this,” Lewandowski said in a video before the ceremony.
“Also, what is important in our lives (is) that we are trying to do and to be also the good,” he told the ceremony.
