Cristiano Ronaldo picked up the Barclays Player of the Season and the Barclays Golden Boot award.
The Manchester United star, 23, has been handed the prestigious Barclays Player of the Season accolade for the second year in succession following the 2007/8 campaign in which he picked up the Barclays monthly honours for January and March and played a pivotal role in United retaining the Barclays Premier League title.
Manchester United's 10th Barclays Premier League title was aided in no small part by Ronaldo's goal tally.
His 31 goals from 34 Barclays Premier League appearances saw the Madeira-born winger hold off stiff opposition from Arsenal's Emmanuel Adebayor and Fernando Torres of Liverpool to collect The Barclays Golden Boot award.
Ronaldo's final total represents the first time a player has scored more than 30 goals in a season since Alan Shearer's 31-goal haul for Blackburn Rovers 12 years ago. In addition to his award, Ronaldo will receive £1,000 for every goal scored to be donated to a charity of his choice.
Ronaldo has scored 66 goals in 161 Barclays Premier League matches since making his debut for Manchester United against Bolton Wanderers in August 2003.
He was named Barclays Player of the Season in 2007 and PFA Players' Player of the Year for 2007 and 2008.

Ferguson named manager of season
Sir Alex Ferguson has won the Barclays Manager of the Season award for the eighth time in his career.
Despite a stuttering start to the new Barclays Premier League season, which saw Ferguson's Manchester United fail to register a win in their opening three fixtures, they kick-started their campaign with a 1-0 home success over Tottenham Hotspur, which initiated an unbeaten run of nine matches, of which they won eight.
Ferguson's side continued to win admirers throughout the season with their free-flowing style of attacking football, and remained well placed at the top of the league for much of the campaign.
The decision was made by the Barclays Awards Panel, which includes representatives from football's governing bodies, the media and fans.
Following his appointment in November 1986, Ferguson has won a total of 28 trophies with Manchester United, including 10 Barclays Premier League titles between 1993 and 2008.
He has won the most Manager of the Year awards in Barclays Premier League history - this is his eighth - and he has also won more Barclays Premier League Manager of the Month awards than anyone else, with 21 in total.

Manchester United 17th title
Manchester United pipped rivals Chelsea to clinch their 17th title triumph with victory at Wigan.
Cristiano Ronaldo opened the scoring for United from the spot after 33 minutes following Emmerson Boyce's foul on fit-again Wayne Rooney.
And substitute Ryan Giggs clinched United's Premier League triumph - his 10th - with a cool finish from Rooney's pass 10 minutes from time.
It sent manager Sir Alex Ferguson dancing down the touchline in the rain at the JJB Stadium in triumph as United were confirmed as champions, two points clear of runners-up Chelsea.
And for Giggs it was the perfect way to celebrate equalling United's appearance record of 758 games held by Sir Bobby Charlton, who was watching the game from the directors box.
United's second, plus a late equaliser for Bolton at Chelsea, sparked scenes of wild celebrations among the visiting fans who will now focus on the European Cup final in Moscow.
