Why Ademola Lookman Should Be Crowned African Player of the Year
As the season draws to a close, the debate for the African Player of the Year award is heating up. While several talented players have made their cases, one man stands head and shoulders above the rest: Ademola Lookman.
The Nigerian winger has been nothing short of phenomenal, putting up staggering numbers that make a strong case for his candidacy. With 5 goals and 1 assist in the Europa League, including an hatrick in the final, 9 goals and 6 assist in the Serie A, and 1 goal in the Coppa Italia, and scoring 3 goals at the CAF Africa Cup of Nations
Lookman’s stats are not just impressive; they are dominant. His pace, skill, and finishing ability have made him a nightmare for defenders across the continent.
But it’s not just about the numbers. Lookman’s impact on the pitch goes beyond his goal contributions. His work rate, vision, and creativity have inspired his teammates and lifted his teams to new heights. And as such, he is a strong contender for this year’s CAF player of the year award.
