France Football African Footballer of the Year

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The African Footballer of the Year, presented to the best African football player, was awarded by France Football magazine between 1970 and 1994. The award was discontinued in 1995 after the European Footballer of the Year (Ballon d'or) was opened to players of non-European nationality, the award being given to George Weah that year. It had already been replaced by an official award, African Footballer of the Year, given out by the Confederation of African Football since 1992.[1]
