Africa’s players making good progress now...
years ago at barcelona had etoo as their main striker, he was also the main striker at inter, we had drogba, michael essien and many other great african players who were playing in the big teams, but today things are not good for africans, in barcelona , juventus, inter, manchester united, chelsea, manchester city, PSG, real madrid, milan, rome, arsenal, bayern. camaroes was a team made up of players who were in the big european teams
what is happening right now is that with corruption in africa, particularly in african soccer players need to corrupt managers if they want to have some good exposure for european scouts to see their talent and take them to big clubs in europe, unfortunately with that africa has a lot fewer famous players today than in the past, we are definitely in a bad way, I wonder in what century will Africa win the world cup at this rate, with this endless corruption we are not going anywhere, this reminds me that eto complained a lot about corruption in soccer from africa, even drogba also complained a lot about corruption in africa soccer
I can African football and is still as strong and good as they were before despite the bitter truth about corruption ruining every thing for more raw and talented African player back home but despite that I can still think of a few names that are causing waves in the big leagues in terms of their massive goal scoring talents. Currently now Africa and Nigerian habor one of the deadliest strikers in seria A by the names of Victor osimhen and lookman, these guy have been extraordinary in terms goal scoring and helped their club to the level of height they are now.
one thing that many people have made a mistake when talking about the evolution of soccer in africa is that they think that because there are some players with fame in europe then it means that soccer in africa is evolved when this is not true, years and years have passed and the evolution in soccer in africa is stagnant, for example it is in the internal competitions in africa, the leagues are weak and with few teams and also with less attraction, and just look at this forum as a concrete example, let's go there in this thread if I ask :
how many teams are there in the nigeria league, in the mozambique league, in the south africa league, in the cameroun league, in the ghana league, in the ivory coast league and what are the names of these teams in these leagues?
how many people in this thread sit down to watch full games from these leagues?
how many people are betting on these leagues? Has anyone here already bet on a team from my country? my country's league doesn't even appear in bookmakers
So I ask: where is soccer in Africa evolving?
with so much corruption in soccer in africa, evolution is impossible, in soccer fields in africa only a few big teams can see the fields with many people watching, and the reason is simple: few people have the financial power to buy tickets and go watching the games, it is a sad scenario, corrupt managers do not watch the games, probably they should not even be a fan of any team, in Africa there are still problems of a country not being able to pay the player's salary when he represents the national team, things that they just embarrass africa
