How Mary Earps went from almost quitting football to becoming a European champion
England Euro 2022 winner Mary Earps is on the final three-player shortlist in the women's goalkeeper category at the Fifa Best Awards.
Manchester United goalkeeper Earps, 29, makes the list along with Chelsea and Germany's Ann-Katrin Berger, and Lyon and Chile's Christiane Endler.
The Fifa Best Awards are presented annually by world football's governing body.
The 2022 winners will be announced in Paris on 27 February.
Earps started every game as the Lionesses won Euro 2022 and recently became the first goalkeeper to keep 50 clean sheets in the Women's Super League.
Berger, 32, is a three-time WSL winner with Chelsea, while 31-year-old Endler helped Lyon win the Champions League courtesy of a superb victory over tournament favourites Barcelona last May.
World Cup winner Emiliano Martinez of Argentina and Aston Villa, Morocco and Sevilla's Yassine Bounou and Real Madrid's Belgium international Thibaut Courtois have been shortlisted for the men's award.
