Is Yaya the greatest African player of all time?

Yaya Weah Eto'o Okocha Drogba come to mind

He is up there, but with Weah winning a Ballon d’Or it’s hard not to put him top.

The likes of Eto’o, Abedi Pele, Drogba, Kanu and Okocha would all have a claim too.

No, he’s second to Drogba for me, absolutely unplayable in his pomp

Griezmann is pretty good.

Toure was brilliant but I’d say it’s Antoine Griezmann

 

[bluemc1]

Griezmann is pretty good.

More to the point, Mozambique simply wasn't a country at that time it was part of Portugal. Yet at the same time, pretty hard to deny it's in Africa. Bit of a weird one

Not an African player by that definition. If that's the case many players in the French team and Zidane would be African players then.
