The Confederation of Africa Football (CAF) has been roundly criticised by social media users over the choice of Kelechi Iheanacho as Africa Promising Player of the year 2016.
Iheanacho won same award in 2013 and picked up the young player award in 2015 before winning the promising player award again last night.
CAF was roundly criticized by social media users for once again awarding him an award, he should have outgrown going by his status and club form.
Many suggested that the award was given to him to compensate Nigeria as the host of the award other than on merit as a bigger recognition best suits his status.
