Fellow Ghana stars Andre Ayew and Kevin Prince Boateng failed to make the five-man list released by the Confederation of African Football (CAF) on Saturday to honour best achievers in African football for the year 2010. According to CAF, the quintet will be trimmed to three players on December 11 for the award to be decided by votes from the head coaches of the 53 National Associations affiliated to the continent's soccer governing body.
Midfielder Kwadwo Asamoah will vie for the Promising Talent of the Year alongside Ryad Boudebouz of Algeria and Nigerien sensation Moussa Maazou, whilst the Black Stars will face stiff opposition from African champions Egypt and Algeria for the National team of the Year prize. Milovan, now in charge of Saudi Arabian side Al-Ahli is in contention for the Coach of the Year with TP Mazembe's Lamine Ndiaye and Egypt's Hassan Shehata.
