The French newspaper “Le Monde” selected the top 5 African players for 2020, and included Al-Ahly duo Mohamed Magdi Afsha and Ali Maaloul.
The French newspaper also selected from the list Moroccan Abdel Samad Al-Mobarki, player of the Moroccan Renaissance club, Alain Traore of Berkane Renaissance and Burundian Josefine Nashimimana, player of the Burundian team Eagle of Makamba.
The following came up about the Al-Ahly duo:
Mohamed Magdy Afsha
He was proclaimed champion of the Al-Ahly fans on November 27, scoring the decisive goal in the 86th minute in the final of the African Champions League and crowning the ninth continental title against traditional rival Zamalek.
The 24-year-old midfielder gained tremendous popularity in the eyes of the Red Devils fans, winning the best player award in the final and ending the year by winning the Egyptian League and Cup.
As for the team, they are among the new generation players who missed the 2019 Africa Cup of Nations and scored their league goal in their seventh appearance against Togo in the 2022 Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers.
Ali maaloul
Despite the interest of some European clubs, Ali Maaloul remains loyal to Al-Ahly.
It is true that he is considered among the best African defenders, to write in his career full of the League, Cup and CAF Champions League, after he scored two goals in the quarterfinals against the South African Sundowns and a goal against the Moroccan Wydad .
Maaloul is an example of modern defense, attacking and passing, and he often scores, and his numbers have shown this since the beginning of his career against Sfaxien.
