The NFF award is divided into three categories: player of the month for both male and female footballers, goal of the month and discovery of the month
The Nigerian Football Federation (NFF) has launched a monthly award to recognise “outstanding performances of Nigerian football players” worldwide, including the NPFL.
In a statement on Wednesday, the NFF said the awards will “honour the brilliance, dedication, and passion that Nigerian football players bring to the game, recognising the top players who have left their mark on the pitch.”
The award is divided into three categories: player of the month for both male and female footballers, goal of the month and discovery of the month.
NFF added that the nomination process for the award will be done by “an independent organisation” which “will collect and analyse players’ statistics throughout the month, ensuring that the best performances are highlighted”.

Nominations for the inaugural edition of the awards will be announced on October 3 and close four days later.
