From experienced veterans to up-and-coming stars, these players have what it takes to light up any football pitch and leave fans on the edge of their seats. Without further ado, here are our picks for the five best strikers in Africa.

Victor Osimhen is a Nigerian professional footballer who has quickly made a name for himself in the world of football. He was born on December 29, 1998, in Lagos, Nigeria, and is considered to be one of the most talented young players in the world.

In the summer of 2019, Osimhen was signed by French club Lille for a reported fee of €12 million. He quickly established himself as a key player for the club, scoring 18 goals in 38 appearances in all competitions in his debut season.

Despite some injury setbacks, Osimhen has continued to impress in Italy, scoring some crucial goals for the club in important matches.

Osimhen is a versatile striker who is equally comfortable playing as a central striker or on the wing. He is known for his pace, strength, and excellent finishing ability, as well as his ability to create chances for his teammates.
