Three Premier League players have been named on a five-man shortlist for the 2015 BBC African Footballer of the Year award.
Manchester City and Ivory Coast midfielder Yaya Toure, Southampton and Senegal striker Sadio Mane and Andre Ayew, who plays for Swansea City and Ghana, have made the cut.
The trio are up against Porto and Algeria midfielder Yacine Brahimi - who won the 2014 award - and Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang of Borussia Dortmund and Gabon.
Toure won the award in 2013 and Ayew triumphed in 2011 while plying his trade for Marseille.
The shortlist was drawn up by a panel of journalists from 46 African countries and the winner, which will be decided by a public vote, will be announced on December 11.
