Super Falcons star,  Asisat Oshoala has been nominated for the 2023 Women’s Ballon d’Or after a successful campaign with Barcelona Femeni.

French Football, organisers of the award, listed the nominees in a tweet on their handle Wednesday evening, September 6, and included the Nigerian among the 30-member shortlist.

Oshoala will hope to beat off competition from 29 players including  Women’s World Cup winner Aitana Bonmati to land the award.
