The official lists also include Yassine Bounou and Ahmed Reda Tagnaouti for the goalkeeper award. Mohamed Ouahbi and Walid Regragui are coaching candidates, alongside Alexandre Santos among others.
These lists mark a selection stage, not an awards result. The men’s nominations announced on 4 November extend this dossier’s coverage beyond the women’s candidates already presented. Hespress and Bénin Web TV reproduce CAF’s lists; they do not represent a separate vote or confirmation of a winner.
