Atletico Madrid ace Antoine Griezmann and AC Milan shot-stopper Mike Maignan gear up for a heated duel as they snag nominations for the prestigious title of Best French Player Abroad in the UNFP awards, soccernet.football reports.

Remarkably, the stellar performances of Theo Hernandez, Marcus Thuram, and Benjamin Pavard go overlooked in the nominations list.

The UNFP Trophees, akin to the PFA Awards, unveiled its contenders today, igniting anticipation among football aficionados.

In a field dominated by elite talents, Maignan stands as the sole Serie A representative, despite enduring what critics label as his toughest season donning the Milan jersey.

Joining the fray are Real Madrid midfielders Edouard Camavina and Aurelien Tchouameni, alongside Arsenal’s rising star William Saliba, but all eyes are on the frontrunner, the excellent Antoine Griezmann of Atletico Madrid.

Maignan’s Milan comrades Theo Hernandez and Olivier Giroud did not make the shortlist, but the real head-scratchers are Inter’s dynamic duo Thuram and Pavard, who clinched the Scudetto with ease.

Thuram, especially, excelled in attack in the Nerazzurri colours, tallying an impressive 12 goals and 12 assists in his debut Serie A campaign, with a total of 14 strikes and 13 assists across 43 competitive outings for Inter this season.
