Well done NNFF Team. The people of Nairaland Sports, Naija football section have spoken.

Osimhen reigns supreme bagging Player of the year and Striker of the year.

Congrats to Awoniyi also. Most improved player of the year is no small feat and that partly explains why he leads the lines at Afcon2021 in Osimhen's absence. He's been one of the Bundesliga's finest players so far this 21/22 season. Well deserved.

Congrats to Zaidu Mage Sanusi also. Well deserved bagging the Best Defender of the year award.

Congrats to Oshoala also. The Queen of Nigerian and African women's football. In 2021, she set many records. First African player to lift the UWCL title and first African Woman player to win the Treble in Europe.



Congrats to all the winners by categories. Looking forward to a far more successful 2022 for all our football athletes.

Soar Super Eagles. Soar Super Falcons. Soar Nigerian Football.
