Nigeria's Vincent Enyeama rivals Cote d'Ivoire's Yaya Toure, current
African Footballer of the year, and Gabonnese striker Pierre-Emerick,
for the African Player of the Year Award showdown slated to hold on
the 8th of January, 2015, in Lagos.
The trio made the final cut in a list released by the Confederation of
African Football after their tip-top form for both their country and
their clubs.
Twenty-five players were initially shortlisted some weeks ago
including Nigeria's Ahmed Musa before it was narrowed down to ten then
later five through voting from members of the Technical& Development
and the Media Committees.
The Head Coaches of the National Associations affiliated to Caf will
vote in their order of preference to decide on who the best player in
Africa is.
The winners would be announced at the Glo-CAF Awards Gala slated for
Thursday, January 8, 2015 in Lagos, Nigeria.
FINAL SHORTLISTS:
Yaya Toure (Cote d'Ivoire , Manchester City)
Vincent Enyeama (Nigeria, LOSC Lille)
Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang (Gabon, Borussia Dortmund).
Enyeama should win,at least as a compensation for our woeful Qualifiers performance.
