Uvini won the prize for the first time in the season.
For his part, Al-Nasr coach Rui Vitoria won the best coach award after leading his team to the top of the Saudi Professional League with one point ahead of title holders.
Al-Shabab fans won the best fans award for the third time this season for their effective attendance to support their team against Ohod in Al-Madīnah al-Munawwarah, in the last game of the round which saw Al-Shabab's 2-1 victory over the hosts.
According to SPL's Technical Committee Al-Hilal fans and Al-Nasr fans were excluded from competing for the prize because of the disciplinary sentences imposed on them by the Discipline Committee of the Saudi Arabian Football Federation, SAFF, in the wake of the events of Riyadh derby.
It must be noted that, the winners of the best awards every round receive 10 thousands SAR for each one, while the winners of the best awards every month receive 50 thousands SAR for each one and finally the best fans get an honorary shield.
