Alessandro Del Piero beat the likes of Luis Figo, Thierry Henry and David Beckham to win the 2007 Golden Foot award.
The trophy is organised by the World Champions Club in Monaco and every year a shortlist of nominees is put up for public vote.

The winner must be over the age of 29 and “stand out for their sport results (both as single players and with their team), for their personality and for the esteem of the public and football experts.”

Juventus captain and World Cup winner Del Piero beat out competition from the other nine nominees in the public vote with 30,199 preferences.

Roberto Carlos came second, followed by Beckham and Milan legend Paolo Maldini.

The other contenders were Marcos Cafu of Milan, Italy captain Fabio Cannavaro, Manchester United veteran Ryan Giggs, Barcelona’s Thierry Henry, Raul of Real Madrid and Inter star Figo.

As the 2007 winner, Del Piero will leave his footprints on the Champions Promenade – a football walk of fame on the seafront of the Principality of Monaco.

Footprints already in place belong to Gerd Muller, Mario Kempes, Paolo Rossi, Romario and Hristo Stoichkov.

This is the fifth edition of the trophy and Serie A has dominated, as previous winners were Roberto Baggio in 2003, Pavel Nedved in 2004, Andriy Shevchenko during his Milan career in 2005 and current Rossoneri star Ronaldo last term.

He Really Deserved it after the great effort he made in the serie B 20 and some goals serie b topscorer.. Am Happy For him
