Manchester City and Ivory Coast midfield star
Yaya Toure on Thursday became the first player
to win four successive African Footballer of the
Year awards.
The 31-year-old beat off the challenge of Gabon
and Borussia Dortmund striker Pierre-Emerick
Aubameyang and Nigeria goalkeeper Vincent
Enyeama, who plays for Lille in France.
Toure equalled Cameroon's Samuel Eto'o as a
four-time winner, but he is the first to claim
four awards in a row.
