Super Eagles and Napoli forward, Victor Osimhen has been crowned the 2023 CAF African Player of the Year.

The 24-year-old beat Liverpool and Egypt’s Mohammed Salah and PSG and Morocco’s Achraf Hakimi to the crown.
Osimhen had a remarkable 2022/2023 season, helping the Partonopei win the Serie A title for the first time after over three decades.

He scored 26 league goals and 31 in all competitions to win the Golden Boot and emerge the Serie A Player of the Season.
Osimhen also smashed several records, including the longstanding one by Liberia’s President George Weah, to become the African with the most goals in the Italian topflight.
Osimhen becomes the first Nigerian to win the coveted prize since Nwankwo Kanu won it in 1999.
