Reading FC have announced the shortlist for this year's player of the season.
In no particular order, defender Liam Moore, midfielder Liam Kelly and attacker Mo Barrow are the three in the running for the award.
The winner will be announced on Saturday afternoon at Madejski Stadium, prior to the game against Ipswich Town kicking off.
Moore has been a rock in Royals' defence this season and has chipped in with three goals in his 47 appearances in league and cup.
Academy product Kelly has netted seven times in 36 games and was also called up by the Republic of Ireland squad.
Barrow, who signed from Swansea City last summer, has bagged 10 goals in 43 games and excited fans with his pace and trickery.
One notable omission from the shortlist, however, is striker Jon Dadi Bodvarsson who had been tipped to at least make the final three.
