Beninese forward Coco Akpovi emerges as standout talent in Togolese top flight

Beninese forward Coco Akpovi emerges as standout talent in Togolese top flight

Coco Akpovi is quickly becoming one of the most talked-about young players in the Togolese top division, thanks to a string of standout performances for CDF-Haknour during the second half of the D1 Lonato campaign.

The 20-year-old Beninese forward has made an instant impact since the league’s midseason restart, registering six goals and three assists in just 12 appearances.

His ability to influence matches decisively—whether by finding the net himself or setting up teammates—has made him one of the most productive players in the latter half of the season.

His form has turned heads across the Togolese league, where his blend of pace, technical ability, and awareness in the final third has made him a crucial component of CDF-Haknour’s attack.

Akpovi’s performances have not only strengthened his club’s ambitions but also placed him firmly on the radar of talent scouts across the region.

Despite his youth, he has demonstrated composure and maturity well beyond his years, regularly delivering in high-pressure moments.

With his total of nine goal involvements from 12 matches, Akpovi is statistically the most decisive player in the league since the turn of the year—a feat that has fuelled speculation about his potential rise beyond domestic competition.

The young striker’s development is being closely watched in Benin, where national youth team selectors are eyeing him as a potential addition to the U23 squad.

His versatility in the attacking third and ability to link play make him an attractive option for any coach looking to build a dynamic front line.

Akpovi’s rise is a testament to the growing quality and competitiveness of the Togolese league, which continues to serve as a platform for emerging West African talent.

His rapid ascent from promising youngster to league standout highlights the importance of domestic leagues in nurturing future stars.

While his long-term future remains uncertain, one thing is clear: Coco Akpovi is no longer just a name to watch—he’s a player making an undeniable impact, with the promise of much more to come.
