Black Stars goalkeeper Fatau Dauda says he is grateful to the organisers of this year�s National Players Award for nominating him for the Most Valuable Black Stars Player Award category.
The shot-stopper said he is confident of winning the accolade.
The AshantiGold last man of defence is competing for the prestigious accolade alongside his Black Stars team-mates Rabiu Mohammed and Mubarak Wakaso.
The 26-year-old put off an excellent performance at the 2013 Africa Cup of Nations at South Africa, where he nicked one man-of-the-match award.
�I was very happy when I heard that I was nominated for the award but I will first thank God and those who gave me the opportunity to showcase what I can do and also to Ghanaians for their prayers and support,� he tells Goal Ghana.
Dauda, however, says he is confident of winning the award even though, any of the three player�s nominated stands the chance of winning it.
�I have the confidence that I can win it but God knows best, so let�s wait till the day of the awards to see what will come out because the three of us are capable of winning the award.�
Dauda�s exploits at the 2013 Afcon have seen him dethroned Stromsgodset shot-stopper Adam Kwarasey as the first choice keeper of the Black Stars.
