Nigeria's Victor Osimhen Loses Africa's Mvp Crown As Manchester City Star Takes Top Spot

Victor Osimhen is no longer the most valuable footballer on the African continent after his market value took another hit, allowing Egypt's Omar Marmoush to claim the top spot, Soccernet.ng reports .

Osimhen, who had held the title of Africa's most valuable player since 2023 when he reached his highest value of 120 million, has now been overtaken by the Manchester City winger, as per Transfermarkt .

The Nigerian forward's stock has been declining since his move to Galatasaray on loan from Napoli.

Initially valued at 100 million last summer, his worth was downgraded to 75 million, and after failing to secure a move to a major European league in the winter transfer window, his valuation has now fallen further to 70 million.
