Real Madrid star Cristiano Ronaldo has emerged winner of the prestigious Ballon d'Or award for a fourth time.

Ronaldo, 31, helped Real Madrid win last season's Champions League and scored three goals as Portugal won Euro 2016.

He also won the award in 2008, 2013 and 2014.

Ronaldo is now one behind Barcelona forward Lionel Messi, who received the honour in 2009, 2010, 2011, 2012 and 2015.

Gareth Bale finished sixth in the vote, while Leicester City striker Jamie Vardy - the only Englishman included on the 30-player shortlist - was eighth.

The Ballon d'Or is given to the best Europe-based player as voted by 173 journalists from around the world.

FIFA ended its association with the program last September.
