Mumba and Schumacher Nominated for EFL Awards
Steven Schumacher and Bali Mumba have been nominated in the EFL End-of-season Awards.
Schumacher is on a three-man shortlist for the Sky Bet League One Manager of the Season award, sponsored by Football Manager, alongside Ipswich Town boss Kieran McKenna and Sheffield Wednesday’s Darren Moore.
Mumba’s nod is for League One’s Young Player of the Season, for which he is nominated alongside Jes Rak-Sakyi of Charlton Athletic, and Cameron Humphreys of Ipswich. The award is sponsored by EA Sports.
Mumba and Schumacher will find out if they are successful at the Awards dinner at the Grosvenor House Hotel in Park Lane, London, on Sunday, 23 April. The awards bash will also reveal the Sky Bet League One team of the season, for which several Argyle players are likely to be in contention.
