Okocha, Drogba, Not Salah Are World Class Players –Aiyegbeni

Former Nigerian international, Yakubu Aiyegbeni has rated Austin ‘Jay Jay’ Okocha, Didier Drogba, Yaya Toure ahead of Mohammed Salah as world class players.

Aiyegbeni made this known in chat with Talksport, where he stated that Salah does not fall into the category of world-class players.

With 154 goals in 252 appearances, Salah surpasses Aiyegbeni, who ranks fifth among African footballers with the most goals in the Premier League.

“Salah is not world-class in my opinion. He is not very skillful with the ball, and a significant portion of his goals are merely fortunate.”

Aiyegbeni further added, “The Premier League’s top African players include Okocha, Drogba, Kanu, Yaya Toure, Emmanuel Adebayor, and Sadio Mane.”
