The annual CAF Awards highlight the exceptional performances of African football players and teams in both club and national competitions. 

The African Player of the Year awards for men and women will be the focal points of the night, as they remain the most prestigious honors in African football.

Nigerian forward Ademola Lookman is considered one of the top contenders for the Men’s Player of the Year award, following a stellar season with Atalanta and the Nigerian national team, the Super Eagles. 

His brilliant performances have made him one of the standout players of the year.
