Super Eagles winger, Ademola Lookman has been crowned 2024 CAF men’s ‘Player of the Year.’
The 27-year-old was announced the winner of the gong at the gala held in Marrakesh, Morocco, on Monday.
The Atalanta star won the prize ahead of Ivory Coast’s Simon Adingra and PSG’s Achraf Hakimi, Guinea striker Serhou Guirassy and South Africa goalkeeper Ronwen Williams.
Lookman has had a fantastic year, being the first player to score a hat-trick in the Europa League/UEFA Cup final since 1975, scoring three goals in 26 minutes against Bayer Leverkusen.
Lookman was named to the Europa League Team of the Year, and he helped La Dea score 18 top-flight goals this season.
Super Falcons star, Chiamaka Nnadozie has won the Goalkeeper of the Year at the 2024 CAF Awards.
The awards event was held on Monday night in Marrakech, Morocco.
Last year, the Paris FC shot-stopper won the inaugural award.
Nnadozie had an outstanding season with Paris FC, helping the team qualify for the UEFA Women’s Champions League.
The 24-year-old also performed well for Nigeria in the 2024 Olympics in Paris.
She is presently recognized as one of France’s top goalkeepers.
Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta has said they “fully deserved” to defeat Everton in their Premier League clash on Saturday.
The Gunners dominated the entire game and did not concede any big chances against the Toffees.
However, Martin Odegaard, Gabriel Martinelli and Bukayo Saka missed opportunities to score.
“Very disappointing not to win the game. We fully deserved to win the game,” Arteta told Sky Sports after the match.
“We conceded no shots. We dominated play. When we generated big chances, we didn’t score a goal.”
On Everton having a longer break in between games: “No. It doesn’t matter. Look at the intensity of what we generated in the second half.
“[Frustrating] especially when we concede zero [chances] and dominate the game so much.”
