Stars nominated for AFC Annual Awards

Premiership-winning midfielder, Daniela Galic, has been recognised for her stellar 2023/24 season in City colours ahead of the AFC Annual Awards.

Galic, who has since moved to FC Twente Vrouwen in the Eredivisie, has been nominated for the AFC Youth Player of the Year Award.

Her nomination comes after a breakout season for City, where she was crowned the 2023/24 A-League Women’s Young Footballer of the Year Award and recognised with City’s Rising Star Award.

Become a City member and watch the next generation of Matildas stars.

A key cog in the City midfield throughout the past two seasons, the 17-year-old made 39 appearances for the Club; netting nine goals and adding a further nine assists. 

Former City star, Ellie Carpenter, has also been recognised for her 2023 season with Olympique Lyonnais and the Matildas, nominated for the AFC Asian International Player of the Year Award.

Carpenter is one of two players nominated for the award, alongside Manchester City and Japanese star midfielder, Yui Hasegawa.

Award winners will be crowned on October 29 at the 28th edition of the AFC Annual Awards at the Grand Peace Palace of the Kyung Hee University.
