More than 20,000 public votes were cast as voting closed ahead of the inaugural Women's Football Awards next month.

The event, which is presented in association with SHEIN and Mail Sport, is set to celebrate the players, people, brands, and organisations contributing to the year-on-year growth of women's football in the UK and around the globe.

The public have been voting across a variety of categories, including for Best Club, International Player and Young Player of the Year, and Football Ally of the Year.

The prestigious Player of the Year award features a star-studded shortlist, including Arsenal aces Leah Williamson and Beth Mead, Manchester City's Khadija 'Bunny' Shaw, and Chelsea centre-forward Sam Kerr.
