"Congratulations my love."

Philippe Coutinho's wife Aine also commented on Natalia's post saying: "Congratulations family .. you deserve it!!"

The award acknowledges Alisson's exceptional first year with the Reds and his strong international performance for Brazil.

Meanwhile, Klopp  was named the Best FIFA Men's Coach of the year at the ceremony in Milan as he saw off competition from Mauricio Pochettino and Pep Guardiola.

Virgil van Dijk missed out to Lionel Messi for the price of best men's player but was included alongside teammate Alisson in the World XI.
