Ghana's John Antwi and Abdul Aziz Issah Nominated for CAF Inter-club Player of the Year
Ghanaian duo John Antwi and Abdul Aziz Issah have been nominated for the Confederation of African Football’s (CAF) Inter-club Player of the Year.
Antwi and Issah were key members of the Dreams FC team that made it to the semi-finals of the CAF Confederation Cup last season
Their stellar performances both in the local league and continental tournament have earned them a maiden nomination in the 2024 CAF Awards.
The Inter-club Player of the Year award is for the best player to have played in CAF inter-club competitions, that is the CAF Champions League and Confederations Cup.
Antwi returned to Dreams FC when the club qualified for their first CAF continental club competition after spells in Kuwait, Saudi Arabia, and Egypt.
Antwi scored five goals and provided two assists before Egyptian giants Zamalek eliminated the Ghanaian club in the semi-finals.
The 32-year-old was instrumental and led the charge to what was an overachievement on the part of the Still Believe boys.
Issah was also instrumental in Dreams FC’s deep run into the competition and helped the club recover from their poor start in the league to finish in ninth position.
