In the men’s category, former winners Mohamed Salah (Egypt) and Sadio Mane (Senegal) will have to battle it out with Senegal goalkeeper Edouard Mendy.

However, the list for the National Women’s Team of the Year award was not among those released due to the absence of a major women’s competition during the period under review.
