Ghana and Sunderland star Asamoah Gyan (110.84 points FTBL reiting) has been crowned BBC African Footballer of the Year for 2010.
The Black Stars striker clinched the title with an overwhelming majority - receiving more than half of the vote.
He finished well ahead of fellow Ghanaian Andre 'Dede' Ayew, Ivorians Yaya Toure and Didier Drogba and Samuel Eto'o of Cameroon.
"I'm so happy, I can't believe it," he said. "I'm so thankful to all the fans who voted for me."
He added: "It was really hard to win this award, especially because of all the other players I was up against.
"So I'm so appreciative to all my fans in Africa - especially my family and fans in Ghana."
