To end this week’s run through what the media has been talking about; CAF held a space on the upcoming CAF Awards 2022 which had Ghana’s Gary Al-Smith and Saddick Adams, Nigeria’s Oma Akatugba and the Legendary Kalusha Bwalya.
Oma Akatugba on Evelyn Badu’s chances stated – “the tournament ended with Evelyn Badu as the best player and the top scorer, Andre Dlamani[as the best goalkeeper] which makes it easy for whoever is voting. If we are looking at players based on their performance at the Interclub Player of the Year then we should not look beyond Evelyn Badu who’s the best player and the top scorer of the CAF Women’s Champions League”.
The Twitter Space touched on the Club of the Year and Coach of the Year which have Hasaacas Ladies Football Club and Coach Yussif Basigi.
Doris Boaduwaa joins former team mate Evelyn Badu on all three categories; Player of the Year, Young Player of the Year and the Interclub Player of the Year.
