Paris Saint-Germain teammates Kylian Mbappe and Lionel Messi have, on Saturday, secured for themselves a pair of awards.
PSG, of course, closed out the club’s season a short time ago.
After wrapping up the Ligue 1 title last time out, Christophe Galtier’s troops welcomed Clermont to the Parc des Princes, as part of the final round of the fixtures in France’s top-flight.
When all was said and done, the capital giants were ultimately put to the sword by three goals to two.
But it mattered little, as PSG’s stars lifted the Ligue 1 title for a record 11th time:

And, as alluded to above, in the process, both of the club’s star performers bagged individual accolades.

Attacking partner in crime Lionel Messi, meanwhile, stands as the French top tier’s most creative presence.
Owing to a haul of 16 assists, the Argentine, ahead of an imminent free agent exit, has clinched the title of Ligue 1′s ‘best passer’:
