He told the FIFPro official website: "To be recognised by my fellow professional players worldwide coming from over 50,000 players is amazing.
"I would like to thank my team-mates and coaches and everyone involved at Manchester United and the national team, as well as my family and friends for their support.
"Thank you also to FifPro for this award and for your work in protecting the interests and welfare of players around the world."
