Manchester City duo Khadija 'Bunny' Shaw and Yui Hasegawa have been shortlisted for the Professional Footballers Association's Women's Player of the Year award.

Shaw, who was named the Football Writers' Association Women's Footballer of the Year in May, scored a league-high 21 goals in 22 league matches as Manchester City won the WSL title for the second time.

Japan's Hasegawa was another key figure for City, who also won the FA Cup.

Arsenal's Alessio Russo, who finished second to Shaw in the Golden Boot competition for leading scorer, is joined on the shortlist by fellow England internationals Lauren James (Chelsea) and Jess Park (Manchester United).

Aston Villa forward Kirsty Hanson is the sixth and final nominee, having scored 12 goals in 22 matches for the Villans.

The winner will be announced on 25 August at the PFA Awards ceremony in Manchester.
