Inter Milan's Nagatomo clinches Asian International Player of the Award

Japan international Yuto Nagatomo has won the Asian Football Confederation Asian International Player of the Year award for 2013.

The 27-year old Inter Milan wingback claimed the prize ahead of Blue Samurai teammate and CSKA Moscow star Keisuke Honda and South Korea and Bayer Leverkusen ace Son Heung-min.

Nagatomo, who has been in fine form for the Nerazzurri this season, joins Manchester United's Shinji Kagawa on the winners list after he took out the 2012 version.
