It’s great to see Andre Ayew leading the rankings as the best African player in Ligue 1. His influence on the pitch is undeniable, and it’s clear why he has earned this top spot. His leadership qualities, vision, and all-around playmaking abilities have made him indispensable for Marseille this season. His ability to dictate the game is something that truly stands out.
Wahbi Khazri (2nd) has also been fantastic, contributing with 8 goals and 5 assists. His performances with Bordeaux have showcased his skill and consistency, making him one of the standout players in Ligue 1 this season.
Max-Alain Gradel (3rd) has really impressed after his return from the Africa Cup of Nations, adding 10 goals and 2 assists for Saint-Étienne, further proving his importance to the team.
It’s also exciting to see Jordan Ayew (4th) making it into the top 10, following in the footsteps of his brother, Andre. It shows the strength of Ghanaian footballers in the league. And Clinton Njié continues to impress for Marseille, ranked 8th, showing his growth.
With Aymen Abdennour, Nicolas Nkoulou, and Aissa Mandi in the top 10, it’s clear that African defenders are making their mark in Ligue 1 too.
This ranking really highlights the incredible talent African players continue to bring to the French league. Would love to see how some of these players will continue to perform in the final stretch of the season!
