No active African footballer has scored more AFCON goals than Ghanaian international Andre Ayew, with 10 Goals to his name.

The 2023 AFCON kicks off in less than a month’s time. The African football Jamboree will be hosting a lot of big names like Mohammed Salah, Sadio Mané, Andre Onana, Victor Osimhen, etc.

 

Today, we will be looking at the players who are still active and have scored the most AFCON goals in history.

It’s worth noting that this list is made up of only players who haven’t retired from professional football yet, regardless of whether their nation qualified for the 2023 AFCON or not.
