Claudio Ranieri's latest reward for leading Leicester to an unlikely Premier League title is a nomination for FIFA's coach of the year award.
FIFA announced Ranieri and Zinedine Zidane among 10 contenders on Wednesday.
Zidane, who lead Real Madrid to the Champions League title, is a candidate despite starting his first top-level coaching job only in January.
Chris Coleman, the coach of another unheralded team, was nominated for taking Wales to the European Championship semifinals.
