Former Nigeria international Yakubu, who once played for Everton, talked about the topic of “the greatest African player in the Premier League”, and he stated directly that Salah cannot be compared with Drogba, Mane and other players.
Yakubu said: “In my opinion, Salah is not a world-class player. He is not good at controlling the ball, and most of his goals are lucky. You can’t say Salah is the greatest African player in Premier League history. Strong contenders for the greatest African player in Premier League history include Okocha, Drogba, Kanu, Yaya Toure, Adebayor and Sadio Mane.”
In his seven years at Liverpool, Salah won eight trophies, including the Champions League, Premier League, Club World Cup, FA Cup, etc., while at the personal level, he also won the African Footballer of the Year twice, three Premier League Golden Boots and one Premier League MVP.
