The PWC All Star awards will be handed out tonight at the RDS in Dublin.
The hurling Team of the Year was already announced this week, with the best 15 footballers to be named later.
45 players have been nominated, with one from Mayo – Ballyhaunis defender Jack Coyne.
Galway’s John Maher and Rob Finnerty will be hoping to claim back-to-back All Star awards, with team mate Matthew Thompson also nominated.
Donegal have 10 nominations, one more than the All Ireland champions Kerry.
Armagh and Meath (5 each), Monaghan and Louth (3 each), Dublin and Tyrone (2 each), and Down and Derry (1 each) are also included in nominations.
Galway’s Thompson is up for Young Footballer of the Year against Donegal’s Finbarr Roarty and Armagh’s Oisin Conaty.
The award for Footballer of the Year will be given to one of three men – Joe O’Connor (Kerry), David Clifford (Kerry) or Michael Murphy (Donegal).
Clifford will make history if he wins – as the first man ever to win three Football of the Year awards.
