Ligue 1 Player of the Year nominations announced
Paris Sanit-Germain duo Angel Di Maria and Zlatan Ibrahimovic have been nominated for Ligue1's Player of the Year award, along with Nice's Hatem Ben Arfa and Marseille's Lassana Diarra.
Despite losing out last year to Lyon's Alexandre Lacazette, Zlatan Ibrahimovic is looking to win the award for the third time, after winning it in 2013 and 2014. The Swedish striker is the favourite after netting 32 goals in just 27 appearances to help PSG win the league.
