00:00 Here is a star-studded best 11 lineups that highlights the fantastic form and
00:08 pure potential of these players.
00:12 Goalkeeper Yousef Bono. Safe hands, Bono gets the nod after a year where the
00:21 ex-Seville keeper took his country to the World Cup semi-finals followed by an
00:26 unlikely but impressive Europa League victory. Right back Ashraf Hakimi. The PSG
00:32 right back is arguably the best in his position in the world, never mind Africa.
00:38 At 25, Hakimi is reaching the peak of his powers delivering goals and assists
00:43 becoming a serious threat at set pieces to boot. Center back Kancel Mbemba has
00:50 the unenviable task of holding together Marseille's back four and will be the
00:55 player most missed by the Ligue 1 giants. As captain of his country Mbemba will be
01:01 expected to keep things tight at the back. Naif Agher. After a shaky start at
01:06 West Ham due to injury, Agher is now a stalwart at the back marshaled his club
01:12 to a European trophy last season and a current top six Premier League spot.
01:18 That's not even mentioning his role in taking Morocco to the World Cup
01:23 semi-finals. Left back Ryan Aitnouri. The Wolves left back is a real one to watch
01:30 at AFCON 2023. The 22 year old has made the Premier League club enormous fun to
01:37 watch and his wingback dynamism is being translated to the Algerian side. Right
01:43 midfield Mohamed Koudous. Another player to make CAF's Africa XI and one who
01:51 could set AFCON 2023. The omnipresent midfielder is in outstanding form for
01:58 West Ham and has been shortlisted for December player of the month. Center
02:03 midfield Sofiane Amrabat. Admittedly the Moroccan midfield marshal has looked
02:08 lost since his move to Manchester United but who isn't lost at Old Trafford.
02:14 Amrabat's soccer superpowers in midfield come into force when turning out for
02:20 Morocco which saw the footballer in pretty much every World Cup best 11 for
02:25 Qatar 2022. Left-sided midfielder Pape Matassar. Tottenham's Senegalese
02:31 midfielder is already a breakout star in the Premier League this season with the
02:36 21 year old signing a new deal at White Hart Lane until 2030 after becoming a
02:42 starter for Ange Pestogolou. Forward Mohamed Salah. A Premier League and a
02:50 Champions League winner for Liverpool, Mohamed Salah is now looking to add an
02:54 Africa Cup of Nations to an already stuffed trophy cabinet. Arguably the best
03:00 individual talent from Africa. Forward Victor Oseman. For one of Europe's
03:06 leading forwards whose goals delivered a Serie A title to Napoli, Victor Oseman is
03:11 playing catch-up on the international stage. The Super Eagles failed to make
03:16 the 2022 World Cup so AFCON and Ivory Coast is a chance to both change his
03:22 country's fortunes in the competition. Forward Iñaki Williams. Williams opted to
03:29 play for Ghana in 2022 having initially opted for Spain where he was born. In
03:34 that time Williams has scored just once in 13 games. At AFCON 2023 feels like the
03:42 moment to finally make his mark outside of Spain.
