Bayern Munich's winger Franck Ribery won the award for European player of the 2012/13 season on Thursday as part of the ceremony that included the UEFA Champions League group stage draw for the 2013/14 competition.

The French international becomes the third player to win the award, the two previous winners being Barcelona duo Lionel Messi (2011) and Andres Iniesta (2012). Ribery won the award this time around ahead of Messi and Real Madrid's Portugal striker Cristiano Ronaldo.

The 74-times capped Ribery was an essential cog in Bayern's charge to last season's historic treble of the Champions League crown, the Bundesliga title and the German Cup. Messi scored 69 goals last season and won the Spanish title, while Ronaldo rattled in 59 goals but only won the Spanish Supercup.

Ribery, meanwhile, scored ten goals in 27 Bundesliga appearances as well as once on Bayern's run to becoming European champions for the fifth time. He also set up Arjen Robben's decisive goal in the 2-1 final win against Borussia Dortmund.

Following the death of Nicolas Anelka's Agent death, West Brom just made an official statement granting Anelka Compassionate leave

BbcSports reports he wants to quit football because agent died...

Incredible news broke on Thursday afternoon: new West Brom striker Nicolas Anelka has walked out of West Brom’s training, and the Frenchman has announced his retirement from professional football.
The story is an embarrassment for West Brom after the club had repeatedly defended signing the bad-boy Frenchman in recent weeks, with Albion manager Steve Clarke going as far as to lambaste journalists who painted Anelka out to be a bad apple only last week.
Just seven days ago WBA boss Clarke told a packed room of press:
Anelka wanted to come back to England to play. I think he felt he still had enough in his body to produce in the Premier League, and luckily for him I agreed. 
There is no downside with Nicolas. I find him a very engaging character and good person. He has been great in the group here. He has come in here and is already a favourite. He is a good person.
He is up for it. If he wasn’t up for it, he would have chosen to go somewhere else for an easier life and still pick up decent money. Everyone keeps knocking on about his age, but he is the fittest 34-year-old I have seen. He is a fabulous athlete.
Sadly for Clarke, Anelka has now made Albion look foolish for trusting him as the ex-Arsenal, PSG and Real Madrid striker has left the Baggies high-and-dry just over a week before the transfer window slams close.
For many observers the writing was on the wall the day Anelka signed for the Baggies, as Le Sulk looked a picture of misery from the very first moment he arrived at The Hawthorns.
In total, Nicolas Anelka was a West Brom player for just 45 days.
Watch Steve Clarke defend his signing of Anelka just seven days ago below, together with Anelka’s now infamous signing day video where the attacker looked miserable at having joined the club
