ZAGREB, January 23, 2018 - The European Swimming League (LEN) has selected Croatia's national water polo goal keeper and captain of Dubrovnik's CO Jug team, Marko Bijač, as the best European water polo player, while Spanish national women's water polo team goal keeper Laura Ester was named the best female player.
This is the tenth year that LEN has awarded this title and the first time that goalkeepers were selected as the best players in both categories.
This is also the second time a Croatian water polo player has been named best player after Miho Bošković was granted the title in 2012.
