Two Reds nominated for BBC African player of the year
Two Liverpool players have been nominated for the BBC’s African player of the year award.
Mohamed Salah and Sadio Mane are both contenders for the award, that is voted on by the public.
Future Liverpool player Naby Keita is also up for nomination, with Chelsea’s Victor Moses and Dortmund’s Pierre-Emerick Aubemeyang joining them on the five-man list.
Both Salah and Mane have been in great form for the Reds this season, with Salah making an instant impact since joining from Roma in the Summer.
The Egyptian has scored seven goals in eleven league games so far this season, becoming a central part of Liverpool’s attack.
Mane has been a revelation since signing for Liverpool last season. He has three goals in five league games this season. Last season the Senegalese midfielder scored thirteen goals in twenty-seven games for the Reds, winning him the Liverpool player of the season award.
