No place for Yaya Toure on five-man African Player of the Year shortlist

Last Updated: 22/11/16 2:54pm



Four-time winner Yaya Toure has failed to make the five-man shortlist for the African Player of the Year award, with three other Premier League stars in the running.  

The Manchester City midfielder has just returned to favour with his club, making his first league appearance of the season and scoring twice in the 2-1 win at Crystal Palace.

His period in exile from the City first team has seen Toure, who was angry at not winning the last African award, miss out on selection from the voting panel.

Riyad Mahrez, Sadio Mane and Islam Slimani are among the five in contention for the prize, along with current holder Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang and former Chelsea winger Mohamed Salah.

The award winner will be announced on January 5, the African football confederation (CAF) said.

Toure was sidelined during a dispute between his agent, Dimitri Seluk, and City manager Pep Guardiola, who demanded an apology for a series of scathing comments in the media made by the Ivorian's representative.

奧巴美揚

【now.com體育】非洲足協周四公佈非洲足球先生最後3強名單，由多蒙特射手奧巴美揚，挑戰英超雙星馬列斯與沙迪奧文尼。

奧巴美揚（Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang）早前在《BBC》的非洲最佳球員選舉中，不敵更受英國人擁戴的阿爾及利亞球星馬列斯（Riyad Mahrez），但這次在非洲「自己友」的投選機制中，可能另當別論。

上屆選舉，這位加蓬射手便結束耶耶托尼4年的壟斷，摘下這項榮譽，今屆自然是想爭取連任。不過，馬列斯上季助李斯特城歷史性捧走英超，並榮膺由「同行」挑選的英格蘭球員先生獎項，呼聲自然不比奧巴美揚低。

除奧巴美揚和馬列斯外，今季由修咸頓轉投利物浦、全年表現平均的塞內加爾國腳沙迪奧文尼，則被視為黑馬。至於效力羅馬的埃及新星穆罕默德沙拿，以及馬列斯的阿爾及利亞隊友施利文尼，則無法躋身3甲。

非洲足球先生的得獎者，1月5日將會在尼日利亞首都阿布賈舉行的頒獎典禮上公佈。

正路馬列斯睇高少少

李斯特城有兩件
