It has been a great season for Baba Abdul Rahman and it could get better if fans vote for him.

The Bundesliga is opening a poll for the best players this season on a position-by-position basis, and the Ghanaian is in line to win the left-back slot.

His competition as he looks to make the Team of the Season 2014/15 will be VFL Wolfsburg's Ricardo Rodriguez and Bayern Munich's Juan Bernat.

The voting is on the official website of the German top flight which is bundesliga.de and it will be on until May 11.

The player's social media accounts have been seen to be pushing the youngster's agenda while fans are being encouraged to hit the page to give support.

Rahman has had an amazing last three years where he has grown from a third-tier player in Ghana to being given a chance by current top flight champions, Asante Kotoko.

He was wonderful in that time, leading to rave reviews that got him call-ups into the national Under-17 and Under-20 sides. The then-teenager excelled in both.

A debut for the Black Stars was just a matter of time and former coach Kwesi Appiah gave him the chance. The 20-year-old has gone on to be the solution Ghana's famous left-back problem which has persisted for about a decade.

Rahman now has an Afcon under his belt after starring in Ghana's run to second place in February.

He went back to his club, Augsburg, to continue playing regularly and has so far made 25 appearances (23 starts) in Ausgburg's 28 Bundesliga games this term.
