Alisson, Thibaut Courtois and Ederson have been nominated for the Yachine trophy; awarded to the best goalkeeper from August 1, 2021 to July 31, 2022. The Yachine trophy - named after Russian goalkeeper Lev Yashin - sees its winner be selected by former Ballon d'Or winners. Winners of the Ballon d'Or awards are announced at a glitzy ceremony in Paris on October 17.
Manchester City's Ederson, Liverpool's Alisson and Real Madrid's Thibaut Courtois have been nominated for the Yachine Trophy which is awarded to the best goalkeeper in the 2021-2022 season.
The award, which was founded in 2019, was won by Liverpool's Brazilian goalkeeper in it's inaugural year and to Paris Saint-Germain's Gianluigi Donnarumma in 2021.
Interestingly Donnarumma, who won Euro 2020 last summer with Italy, does not even make the 10-man shortlist.
There are four Premier League goalkeepers and four from La Liga that make the shortlist.
Alisson, Ederson, Chelsea's Edouard Mendy and Tottenham's Hugo Lloris are the Premier League's representatives.
From La Liga, Courtois, Atletico Madrid's Jan Oblak and Sevilla's Yassine Bounou have all impressed the panel enough to make it onto the list of nominations.
