Lionesses lead the way as shortlists revealed for inaugural Women’s Football Awards

Eight current Lionesses have been nominated for Player of the Year at the inaugural Women's Football Awards in May.

Beth Mead, England captain Leah Williamson and Mary Earps are all up for the leading gong, sponsored by Klarna, at the new ceremony. Other Euro 2022 winners Alessia Russo, Millie Bright, Rachel Daly, Lauren Hemp and Chloe Kelly are also nominated, as are leading WSL international stars Sam Kerr and Khadija 'Bunny' Shaw.

The event, which will be co-hosted by former England star Eni Aluko and Liverpool men's legend Jamie Carragher, will celebrate the achievements of women in football across all levels and recognise the people, brands and organisations who are contributing to the incredible growth of the game. Real Madrid and Scotland forward Caroline Weir will also be on the judging panel alongside Everton star Conor Coady and Sky Sports News anchors Pete Graves and Hayley McQueen.
