Super Falcons forward Asisat Oshoala is delighted with her nomination for the 2023 Women’s Ballon d’Or.
Oshoala has been nominated for the prestigious award for the second consecutive year.
The 26-year-old finished in 16th position last year.
The Barcelona Femeni star stated that she is full of excitement following her recognition by organisers of the award, France Football Magazine.
“I’m very happy about the nomination and excited for what’s to come. I had a tough end to the season, but I think I worked last year and I’m really happy I was able to get on the nomination list again for another year of hard work,” Oshoala told The MTN Super Falcons Show. READ ALSO:
