The award scheme which aims to reward the most outstanding player under the age of 21 features several top stars accross the globe. Top among the list are Borussia Dortmund\u2019s Jude Bellingham, <span style=\"color: rgb(77, 81, 86);\">Eduardo<\/span> Camavinga of Real Madrid as well as Barcelona pair of Ansu Fati and Pedro Pedri.<\/p>\n<p>The Ghanaians have been rewarded for their hard work during the year under review. Kamaldeen had quite a good season though injuries have hampered his progress yet still his work hasn&#8217;t gone unnoticed. Afena-Gyan has had a phenomenal season with AS Roma. He won the maiden edition of the UEFA Europa Conference League with them. They deserve the nominations they have gotten.<\/p>\n<p>Other players of Ghanaian descent were also nominated. They are <span style=\"color: rgb(38, 38, 38);\">Brian Brobbey, Yunus Musah, Ansger Knauff and Nico Williams, younger brother of Inaki Williams. They are putting Ghana on the world map. I&#8217;m sure none of the duo has a chance of winning but I&#8217;m hoping they will earn a respectable position after everything is done.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Content created and supplied by: Courageous92 (via  Opera<br \/>\nNews )<\/p>\n<\/article>\n<p class=\"copyright hide\">\n<span class=\"content\">    ,  .   ,     .
