Rodri appeared in all but one of City’s Champions League matches, scoring twice. He put in an outstanding performance in the final and earned the Man of the Match award. Seven of the 11 spots in the season’s team went to Manchester City players.
Napoli’s Khvicha Kvaratskheli was named the Champions League Young Player of the Season, capping off a remarkable campaign for the 22-year-old Georgian.
Kvaratskhelia won the Serie A title with Napoli and also won the league’s MVP award earlier this month.

Goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois (Real Madrid)
Defenders: Kyle Walker (Man City), Ruben Dias (Man City), Alessandro Bastoni (Inter), Federico Dimarco (Inter)
Midfielders: John Stones (Manchester City), Kevin De Bruyne (Manchester City), Rodriguez (Manchester City)
