Katie Robinson bursts forward in the first half.

The nominees for the PFA Young Player of the Year are some of the brightest prospects in the game.

Robinson enhanced her reputation after starring for Albion with four goals and six assists in the WSL, earning a call-up for the Lionesses World Cup squad in the process.

Lauren Hemp is bidding to win the award for a fourth season in a row and what would be five times overall. The Manchester City forward notched ten goals and 11 assists in all competitions.

Hemp’s England team-mate Lauren James has been a breakout star of the Lionesses’ World Cup campaign, but she was just as important for Chelsea’s success last season. This is James’ third nomination for the award.

Maya Le Tissier was a standout for Manchester United at the back following her move from Albion. She has been nominated for the second season in a row. Missy Bo Kearns excelled for Liverpool, playing 28 games and contributing five goals and two assists. Laura Blindkilde earned her first nomination for her impressive term for Aston Villa.

The winner will be announced at the PFA 50th Awards ceremony on 29 August.
