Kudus, Partey out; Osimhen, Salah top CAF Player of the Year list.

By Updated:17 Comments3 Mins Read1 Views

Partey and Kudus, two Ghanaian football players, were not included 

on the final shortlist for the CAF men’s player of the year award in 2023. In November, the football governing body of the continent released the initial 30-

man shortlist, which included both players.

Kudus and Partey both play in the Premier League

But the CAF narrowed down the field of nominees to just three, and now Achraf Hakimi, Victor Osimhen, and Mohamed Salah will compete for the coveted prize

In all competitions last season, Kudus scored eighteen goals and dished out seven assists, making him Ajax’s best player.

With two goals and one assist during the Qatar 2022 World Cup, he was also a standout performer. Last summer, he was able to secure a transfer to West Ham United.

The 23-year-old has continued his excellent play since joining the Hammers and has already contributed to six goals for David Moyes’ team.

Partey had a fantastic season in the year that was reviewed as well, contributing significantly to Ghana’s World Cup qualifying and helping Arsenal place second in the Premier League.

Nevertheless, neither of the players made the CAF men’s player of the year final shortlist, which was announced on Thursday.

Comfort Yeboah, a defender for Ampem Darkoa and Ghana, is a nominee for the Women’s Young Player of the Year award.
