CAF names Best XI of AFCON 2025

The Confederation of African Football has released its official Best XI for the Africa Cup of Nations 2025 to recognize the standout players from the tournament in Morocco.

The team was selected based on performances across the tournament, taking into consideration consistent players from the group stage through to the knockout rounds, not only in the final match.

Up front, Victor Osimhen leads the line, joined by Sadio Mané and Brahim Díaz. The midfield features Pape Gueye, Idrissa Gana Gueye, and Ademola Lookman.

At the back, Noussair Mazraoui, Calvin Bassey, Moussa Niakhaté, and Achraf Hakimi were selected, with Yassine Bounou named in goal.
