EPL: ‘Salah is not world class’ – Aiyegbeni names six best African players

Former Super Eagles striker, Yakubu Aiyegbeni, has claimed that Liverpool winger Mohammed Salah is not world class.

Aiyegbeni ranks fifth on the list of African footballers with the most Premier League goals.

Salah is ahead of the Nigerian with 154 goals in 252 appearances.

However, Aiyegbeni has listed players like Didier Drogba, Yaya Toure, Austin ‘Jay Jay’ Okocha and Sadio Mane as better than Salah.

“Salah is not world-class in my opinion. He is not good with the ball, and the majority of his goals are lucky goals.

“The greatest African players in the Premier League are Okocha, Drogba, Kanu, Yaya Toure, Emmanuel Adebayor and Sadio Mane,” Yakubu said on Talksport in quotes revealed via Football Factly.
