I remain one of Africa’s best strikers –Yakubu - Punch Newspapers

FORMER Super Eagles striker Yakubu Aiyegbeni believes he ranks among the best strikers out of Africa.

Yakubu sits fifth on the list of all-time African goalscorers in the Premier League with 95 goals, just behind Togo striker Emmanuel Adebayor’s 97 for Arsenal, Manchester City, Tottenham and Crystal Palace. The Nigerian featured for Portsmouth, Middlesbrough, Everton and Blackburn Rovers over a nine-year period, and believes his record stacks up favourably considering his club’s comparatively lower standings.

“I’ll still remain one of the top strikers from Africa, no matter if those guys score more than 100 goals,” he said. “Don’t forget they played for some of the biggest clubs in England. “To score 15, 17 goals in Portsmouth, Middlesbrough, Everton and Blackburn is big as well. If you can get 15 goals in a season as a striker in England, it’s a great season for you.

Yeah 95goals in EPL tells the tale already
