Exclusive: Africas Best Osimhen Can Lead Super Eagles To 2023 AFCON Glory Agu

Former Nigerian international, Alloy Agu believes Super Eagles striker, Victor Osimhen who recently won the Africa Footballer of the Year Award, can lead the team to glory in the fast approaching 2023 African Cup Of Nations.

Osimhens momentous victory marks the end of a 23-year drought for Nigeria, the last African nation to claim the continents highest individual footballing honour. Legendary forward Kanu Nwankwo secured the award for Nigeria in 1999.

Osimhens triumph is the culmination of a remarkable year, solidifying his position as one of the worlds elite footballers. He faced stiff competition from fellow nominees, Moroccos Achraf Hakimi and Egyptian icon Mohamed Salah, but his consistent brilliance ultimately outshone them both.

However, Agu in a chat with Completesports.com stated that Osimhen has what it takes to lead Nigeria to glory.

It was a great one. A very laudable achievement from a Nigerian. Its an award that was well deserved

I think Osimhen has always been an outstanding player. whenever he plays you can always see the hunger in him to deliver. It is not a new thing but daily routine.

This also means his daily routine has been rewarded. So he will continue in that daily routine which I know will lead the Super Eagles to glory in the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations.
