No doubt the three Premier League stars come into this competition with impressive records and the stand as some of the top talents on the African continent. However, transforming club performance to national team to help their respective countries succeed might be a whole different kettle of fish.
Mohammed Salah
He is arguably the biggest and brightest star on the African continent as at this time as his name is mentioned in the same breathe as Lionel Messi, Robert Lewandowski, and co. The Liverpool forward has been in exceptional form this season just as he was last season. Every ball he touches turns to goal for his club as he is the highest goal scorer for the second place Premier League club with 23 goals in all competition. Salah is a dread to most defense and it is expected that his form will continue with his national team. Nigeria, Sudan, and Guinea Bissau are the first to face the wrath of Salah before other teams in the competition will get their turns as the Pharaoh of Egypt progress in the competition.
Saido Mane
It is both a blessing and a curse to Liverpool to have two of Africa’s finest players in their team. While their absence may spell doom for the team, their contributions to their national teams are much needed to make a difference. Mane will be leading Senegal’s attack in this competition bringing his usual energy and industry into the team. He has been a regular for Liverpool this season making huge impact in games. So far this season he has scored 10 goals in all competitions. His tally for the national team so far stands at 27 goals in 81 appearances having gotten off the mark with a goal in the first game of this tournament. He will be hoping to lead the Teranga Lions to AFCON success and possibly claim the individual prize of highest goal scorer in the tournament.
Riyad Mahrez
While Liverpool will be sweating over the absence of Salah and Mane, Manchester City Football Club will be thankful that Mahrez is the only star player they will be without at this crucial stage of the title race. The Algerian star has contributed immensely to the rise of City on the Premier League table with 6 goals and 13 goals in all competitions this season. He led Algeria to victory the last time out in the competition and will be looking to repeat same this term. It is note worthy that Mahrez like Salah and Mane is blessed with individual skill and brilliance that can take him all the way to winning the highest individual honor in the competition.
The three stars are in top shape for the competition but football is not an individual sport. A player is only as good as his team. That is why many betting enthusiast are seeking out these names in the special BetKing AFCON markets and making a beehive for bet agents shops to place their bets on these stars. So while we look forward to the individual brilliance of these stars, they will need the collective help of their teams to shine as bright as possible in this competition. So then it is left for us to see as the competition progresses, the star that will shine the brightest.
