The duo enjoyed massive success with Hasaacas Ladies in the year under review, having won unprecedented five trophies.
They also starred in the maiden edition of the CAF Women’s Champions League, where Hasaacas finished as runners-up.
Badu was the top scorer in the 2021 CAF Women’s Champions League and was also named player of the tournament.
She is, therefore, the favourite to win the Young Player of the Year award despite currently plying her trade at Norwegian club, Avaldsnes IL.
