Awards
ESM awards the following honours:
- ESM Golden Shoe. Since the 1996–97 season, ESM annually rewards Europe's most prolific striker with the European Golden Shoe.[1]
- ESM Team of the Season. After selecting a Team of the Season for 1994–95, ESM instituted the monthly ESM 11. Each of its members selects the 11 best players in the European leagues each month from September to May. The players who most often appear in those teams are elected into the ESM Team of the Season.[1][2]
- UEFA Best Player in Europe. Since 2011, in partnership with UEFA, ESM handles the voting and administration for the UEFA Best Player in Europe Award, which is awarded to the outstanding player of the European season.[1][3]
