The winning is her fifth time winning the award, going beyond former Falcons striker, Perpetua Nkwocha.
The 2021-22 campaign can be said to be Oshoala’s best yet as she played a pivotal role in her Spanish side’s treble charge – the Spanish Women’s Super Cup, Copa de la Reina and the Primera Division.
In the male category, Sadio Mane won the 2022 CAF Player Of The Year Award.
