Three Leicester City players lead the shortlist to become the PFA Player's Player of the Year in England.
No Leicester player has ever won the award since its inception in 1974. Jamie Vardy, Riyad Mahrez and N'golo Kante are joined on the list by Tottenham's Harry Kane, Arsenal's Mesut Ozil and West Ham's Dimitri Payet.
As is the case with Leicester, if Payet wins he will become the first West Ham player to win the award.
