E. Cavani elected as the best "Ligue 1" football player of the year

30-year-old Paris Saint-Germain striker Edinson Cavani has been recognized in France. The Uruguayan national team striker was voted the best player of the 2016-17 Ligue 1 season. E. Cavani was unmatched in terms of scoring this season - he scored 35 goals in the same number of matches. However, E. Cavani's award is likely to be just a consolation prize, as the "Monaco" team is very close to winning the French champions title. Meanwhile, the sensation of the French football season, 18-year-old Kylian Mbappe ("Monaco"), was voted the best young player of the Ligue 1 season. K. Mbappe scored 14 goals in the French league this season in 27 matches played. The Ligue 1 team of the season consists of: Danijel Subasic ("Monaco"), Djibril Sidibe ("Monaco"), Kamil Glik ("Monaco"), Thiago Silva (PSG), Benjamin Mendy ("Monaco"), Bernardo Silva ("Monaco"), Marco Verratti (PSG), Jean Seri ("Nice"), Kylian Mbappe ("Monaco"), Edinson Cavani (PSG), Alexandre Lacazette ("Lyon").
