Mary Earps is one of five players nominated for a top award after playing a starring role for the Lionesses at the Women's World Cup.Earps is up for BBC Women's Footballer of the Year alongside Barcelona and World Cup star Aitana Bonmati, Sweden's Fridolina Rolfo, Germany striker Alexandra Popp and Australia and Chelsea taliswoman Sam Kerr. The winner of the prize will be announced on November 28.
The England goalkeeper is the only Lioness on the list but will be hoping to follow in the footsteps of England stars Beth Mead and Lucy Bronze who have previously picked up the trophy. However, Earps will face stiff competition for top spot, particularly from Bonmati who won the league and Champions League with Barcelona and picked up the Golden Ball at the World Cup after helping inspire Spain to glory Down Under.
