Sports Ahmed Musa should forget about winning African Player of the Year award - Jay Jay Okocha

Former Super Eagles Austin Jay Jay Okocha has backed Ivory Coast midfielder Yaya Toure to still retain the Player of the Year Award for 2014.

Toure was been shortlisted in the final five-man list for the award,and he will be coming up against two Nigerian players, Ahmed Musa and Vincent Enyeama.

Okocha who himself missed out twice on the award during his playing days, argued that remains the best African player from the lot and that he is the favourite to win it again.

“Musa has his own qualities, but in my opinion, Yaya Toure is the best African player, he is on course to win the title logically,” Okocha told Le Buteur.

The winner of the 2014 African Player of the year award will emerge at a gala event to be held again in Lagos, in January 2015.
