Senegal captain Amara Diouf says he is delighted to have broken Nigerian Victor Osimhen’s goals scoring record at the U-17 Africa Cup of Nations.

The Senegalese scored a brace against South Africa in the quarter-finals in Algiers on Wednesday evening to take his tally to five goals in the tournament.

The 14-year-old left winger surpassed the record of four goals set by Osimhen at the 2015 tournament in Niger, with two more games to play.

Bearing in mind Osimhen’s current exploits at Italian champions Napoli, Diouf is delighted to follow in the footsteps of such a successful player.

“It is always the right path if you follow the examples set by the best players in the competition,” he said in an interview with CAFOnline.

“This is a massive thing for me and I am really delighted to break the record. It means a lot to me and hopefully, I can also follow his path of success,” Diouf said.
