Real Betis forward star, Cédric Bakambu is campaigning for Ademola Lookman to win the 2024 CAF Men’s Player of the Year award. Lookman is among the five final nominees for the individual accolade, and a hot favorite to win the award.
Lookman has been tipped by many to win the award following a remarkable year for club and country.
Bakambu, 33, insisted that the Nigerian has done enough to succeed his compatriot Victor Osimhen as the best player on the continent.
“It’s difficult because now Mohamed Salah is playing very well but if I have to choose, my opinion, I’ll say Lookman, the player of Atalanta”.
The award ceremony will hold on Monday, December 16 in Marrakech, Morocco.
