Super Falcons forward, Asisat Oshoala has been nominated for a place in the 2020 UEFA Fan’s Team of the Year.

The forward who has bagged an African women footballer four times but surprisingly missed out on the 2020 FIFA Best nomination, made the list alongside 49 other layers.

Oshoala is one of three Barcelona players to have been named in the list released by UEFA on Tuesday.

The forward who played for English sides, Arsenal ladies was in sublime form in the 2020 season, winning the league title and the Super Cup with the Catalan giants.

The Super Falcon star bagged 20 goals in 19 league appearances last season.
