Real Madrid Turkish midfielder Arda Güler capped his breakthrough 2025-26 UEFA Champions League campaign by being named UEFA's Revelation of the Season, while Paris Saint-Germain winger Khvicha Kvaratskhelia claimed the competition's top individual award after leading the French club to another European title.
UEFA announced its annual honors following the conclusion of the tournament, recognizing players who defined a campaign that featured the league-phase format, dramatic knockout ties and PSG's successful title defense.
At just 21, Güler completed his transformation from promising talent to one of Europe's most influential young midfielders.
The Turkish international was awarded UEFA's inaugural Revelation of the Season honor, a newly introduced award recognizing young players who take a major step forward and make a significant impact on the competition.
After playing a limited role during the previous campaign, Güler became a key figure in Real Madrid's midfield, logging 1,030 Champions League minutes across 14 appearances, including 13 starts.
