The Manchester City and England player joked that he would "call it a day" on the Champions League now he's landed the award!

He's been given the badge not only in recognition of how he inspires success for Manchester City and his national team when he's playing football, but also for his work tackling negative attitudes or issues off the pitch.

On receiving his badge, the player said that it "means a lot" to him.

According to Blue Peter, the important award is given to "individuals who show great expertise in their chosen field, are considered to be role models, and who encourage and motivate children across many generations".

Very few gold badges are given out each year.

Others who have received one include the Queen, the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge, Sir David Attenborough, Sir Paul McCartney, JK Rowling and Ed Sheeran.
