From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Oscar del Calcio are awards given by Associazione Italiana Calciatori (Italian for "Italian Association of Footballers") to the best footballers of Italian Serie A. The winners of the prizes are chosen by the same footballers.

The awards are gold plated statues that have the form of a footballer in the act of kicking, the same symbol of AIC.
