Kanu Backs Lookman for CAF Player of the Year
Former Nigerian international Nwankwo Kanu has thrown his support behind Ademola Lookman to win the CAF Player of the Year award. The 27-year-old Atalanta forward has been in exceptional form this season and is widely considered one of the top African players.
“Lookman is a very good player, humble, works very hard and going by the records, I believe he will win,” Kanu said.
“I don’t know of any African player who has done better than him this year.”
Lookman’s impressive performances for both club and country have earned him recognition on the global stage, including a nomination for the Ballon d’Or.
