Bayern Munich were recognised for a record-breaking year as Jupp Heynckes was presented with the Coach of the Year Award ahead of Sir Alex Ferguson and Jurgen Klopp.
Heynckes led Bayern to the Bundesliga title, the German Cup and the Champions League in 2013 before retiring.
‘It is a great honour to win this award today because it is an innovation that someone who has retired should receive such a distinction,’ Heynckes said.
‘It means an awful lot to pick up this award at the end of my career. It is not just down to me but the whole club of Bayern Munich.’
