Kick Off Footballer Of The Season finalists announced
The eight finalists of the Kick Off Footballer of the Season Awards have been announced. The public can now support their favourite by voting at www.kickoff.com.
The Editor of Kick Off, Richard Maguire, said: "The Kick Off Footballer of the Season Award, presented by Ballantine's Finest Whiskey, has become one of the measures by which players assess their season - players want to know how they are perceived by the public, and how their personalities have impacted on South Africa's football fans. It's as much about performing on the pitch as it is about being an upstanding member of society and the final eight nominees, as voted for by the public, illustrate this point. Amongst them we have real leaders, players who continually show fighting spirit and who put the team's success before their own."
The final round of public voting will now take place until the awards ceremony on 28 May, 2015.
The eight finalists are:
- Mandla Masango (Kaizer Chiefs)
- Lehlohonolo Majoro (Orlando Pirates)
- Mulomowandau Mathoho (Kaizer Chiefs)
- Oupa Manyisa (Orlando Pirates)
- Tefu Mashamaite (Kaizer Chiefs)
- Andile Jali (Bafana Bafana)
- Cuthbert Malajila (Mamelodi Sundowns)
- Thulani Hlatshwayo (Bidvest Wits)
