Indeed, 2024 will be a year to remember for Ademola Lookman. He truly deserved the prestigious CAF prize after delivering a series of stellar performances for both Atalanta and Nigeria. His contributions on the pitch was remarkable. It is satisfying to see that his efforts didn't go unnoticed. Lookman's success to me is not just a personal triumph but also a testament to his dedicaton, and hardwork.
With this achievement, Lookman has become a role model and inspiration for younger talents across Africa.
Before they announced Rodri as the winner of the Ballon D there was an information leak that confirmed that he would be the winner. This was why Vinicius and his club Real Madrid refused to attend the occasion.
I read in a news outlet yesterday that a leaked information confirmed that Morrocan defender Hakimi will be announced as the winner. I had to believe the news because of my experience with the Ballon D. But I was glad that Ademola won the award. He is the number one best African player and there is no doubt about that.
