2020 Golden Boy Award: Jadon Sancho, Mason Greenwood, Hudson-Odoi, Haaland Nominated [Full List]

England duo Mason Greenwood and Phil Foden are on the final shortlist for the 2020 Golden Boy Award, MySportDab reports. 

Greenwood and Phil Foden were sent home while playing with England on international duty for breaching Covid-19 lockdown rules in Iceland.

A total of seven player from the Premier League are nominated.

Arsenal youngster Bukayo Saka, Liverpool ace Neco Williams and Chelsea’s Callum Hudson-Odoi are also on the 40-man shortlist.

Wolves record signing Fabio Silva and Man City’s Ferran Torres are also in contention for the award.

Foden and Greenwood were nominated for their impressive performance in the Premier League last season.

However, they have started the new season with a disappointing start after failing to meet Covid-19 isolation rules by inviting two girls to the England official team hotel.

Manchester United Coach Ole Gunnar Solskjaer also revealed that he will speak to Greenwood about his behaviour.
