Re: Africa Football Discussion || Current Topic: AFCON 2025 Qualifiers - CAF.
CAF just announced the last shortlist For Men’s Player Of The Year Award and the obvious two names which are favourite are;
Ademola Lookman (Nigerian & Atalanta) and Victor Boniface (Nigeria & Bayern Leverkusen)
But there's also Brahim Diaz. (Moroccan & Real Madrid) too which is shocking to me because I didn't see him do anything at the last AFCON. People are saying that it's Madrid's PR that is making him be among the last 3 shortlist but what do you guys think and who is winning it. Who do you think deserve the award based on statistics and not favourism
We all saw how Ademola Lookman single handlely won Atalanta the European Europa league competition against the best club in Europe last season( Bayern Leverkusen ). We shouldn't forget he scored three good goals in that game. We all know he deserves it more than anyone. Asides that competition, he was well effective during the African Cup of Nations. Victor Boniface wasn't involved during the African Cup of Nations Competition, but he scored crucial goals for Bayern Leverkusen during Bundesliga games last season. Brahim Diaz shouldn't even come up, Haller of Ivory Coast and Borussia Dortmund should make that position in my opinion.
